Hi,
My husband and I got into an argument 2 days ago. I am finally pregnant(6 weeks). My hormones are flaring and I admit I said something's I did not mean only in self-defense. I apologized after and he is still holding on to the grudge. I texted him and called him and he is giving me the silent treatment. He hasn't slept in bed with me and sleeps in our car. I feel since he is giving me his butt to kiss should I not pay his credit card bills? I mean am I obligated to pay since I am his wife? We've only been married for 1 year. It is a struggle on me every month since he lost his job in June 2008.
He wants more respect from me... I am trying but I feel he is depressed and down. I think subconsciously he want me to support him which I am in no position to do. I want to downsize my living expenses and that includes him and his silent and stinking attitude. What do u think is the right thing for me to do at this point? Continue to pay his bills or let the chips fall where they may? Thank u

Nothing will be accomplished if you are arguing about who's who. Yes pay the bills for now and help him find a job so he can take care of it soon.

Both of you are acting like 12 year old, pay his bills, take him out to dinner and move on with this.

If you don't pay the bills he's not going to, and its going to affect both of you later on or sooner, and cause more arguments because of money...

If he don't have a job he shouldn't be using his credit card. Okay, he lost his job in June it's time to get a new especially with a baby on the way. Have he been job hunting? Next time when you get into an agruement walk away and let him argue with himself, otherwise you will say hurtful things and later wished you haven't.

What could you be arguing about that last for two days, and threatens to shake this whole house apart??
