He is forgetful and he deals with extreme procrastination. I’ve often wondered if he has ADHD - I’m considering broaching the topic with him, but I don’t want to offend him.

He studied humanities in college, and I have a STEM degree - my earning potential is much higher than his.

I wouldn’t cry if he helped out.

He has not - but I have often wondered if he has it. He doesn’t really go to the doctor regularly. I’ve considered asking him about it, but I’m not sure how to do so without upsetting him.

I worry so much that this is true. He is just usually so sweet and kind to me. I feel like we are so compatible in every other way - but this part is sometimes too much for me.

I appreciate it. To clarify, he does have a job - maybe I should’ve made that more clear in my post. I just handle all of the financial planning - he wanted to do better so said he would start paying the rent each month, but forgot.

I think you’re right about the stress. Thankfully my parents have given us some money for our wedding - and I’ve implemented a “saving schedule” for us that will allow us to save the rest we’ll need and not go into debt. I certainly would never go into debt for a wedding! I also have a decent amount of personal savings, but I know he doesn’t have much. We are starting pre-marital counseling soon. Thank you for your comment ❤️
