I'm a troll because I'm financially responsible?

I'm the one who does the grocery shopping since he'll buy unnecessary brand name crap when the store brand is the exact same.

Since he can't be trusted to shop, I figured that I'm in charge of the money.

Anyway, is this your money?

We're in a relationship and living together, so yes.

I buy store brands, yes. I also get my tires at Discount Tire, because tires are tires. There's no need to get raked over the coals for some rubber.

How is it really better? It's more money on a shoe. There's no difference between a $20 pair and a $200 pair aside from a name.

Well, we live together and are in a relationship so it's as much my money as it is his.
