Hey Everyone. How are you?

Just have to rant for a second but My girlfriend is getting on my nerve. Does anyone else ever miss being single? I'm not breaking up with her but Just the thought makes me happy sometimes. When I lived by myself my bills were a lot cheaper. Now she is living with me and my electric doubles and my water bill goes up and things like that. I wasn't ready for it. Now I am a little behind on my bills and will have to figure something out but I just got off the phone with her and she gets to spend her check shopping on Friday. It just doesn't seem fair that I am stuck with all the bills and she gets to live there freely and spend her money on whatever. Argh!!

kctiger · Nov 25, 2009, 07:21 AM

Does she not split the bills with you?

Unknown008 · Nov 25, 2009, 07:23 AM

And does she not contribute at least a minimum revenue to the house?

adam_89 · Nov 25, 2009, 07:27 AM

Nope she doesn't split the bills. She just does her own thing. I miss being single. I had a minimum on all my bills and I managed just fine and could still do whatever I wanted. Now I am strapped and it blows. I wasn't ready to move her in but I put a lot of thought in to it and decided OK because her step dad kicked her out pretty much. Now things get annoying anymore. Anybody that is single just stay single.

kctiger · Nov 25, 2009, 07:29 AM

I love being single, but, like anything, there is also an upside to having a girlfriend, especially around the holidays.

I think you two really need to work out some sort of arrangement where she pays a weighted portion of the bills (allocated based upon percentage of total income). It just isn't fair Adam, and it puts way too much stress on you. None of my business though.

Unknown008 · Nov 25, 2009, 07:30 AM

You got to try the new skin! The profile page errors have been fixed! Yay! :D

adam_89 · Nov 25, 2009, 07:34 AM

Thanks Kc. I think I need to talk to her. She either needs to pay at least on bill or something. Or I could make her move out. Then I would have money again. I don't know what that is anymore. I would still date her but just not live with her. She has no idea what the real world is like. No idea what so ever. I know she couldn't make it at all. Take a bifg step into the big world. Buy a house on your own and see how it goes. Haha

Good morning adam, unky, kc, cat, red... who ever else I missed.

Adam, ask her to help with the bills. Its just an obvious thing that from the start she should have been helping. I guess that's rude on her part.

Good Morning Sunny. I agree with you on that. It makes it a little harder on me and stresses me out. I don't mean to complain so I apologize for that everyone.

88sunflower · Nov 25, 2009, 08:50 AM

Your not complaining adam. I guess you would have just thought she would offer to help. I think its totally fine if you just ask her to help out.

Before I married my husband when we first moved in together, he told me to pay my car payment and the phone bill. He would cover the rest. That was fair since he made 4 times the amount I did then. It worked out well.

adam_89 · Nov 25, 2009, 08:54 AM

Well I make about $2000 a month and she makes about $500 something a month. I have about $1600 a month in bills plus gas money or groceries or whatever. All she pays is her own car insurance and her own gas. Hell If She paid the electric bill that would help a lot. I just don't think she knows how to manage money very well. She pays her insurance every 6 months which is about $500 dollars and she has a hard time saving for that. Then When she says she is using her check this week to go shopping it just makes me frustrated!

88sunflower · Nov 25, 2009, 08:57 AM

Well it's a fine time to sit her down and explain that all to her. She won't know unless you tell her. Get it out in the open.
