I mean Damn, these are age old relationship issues. It’s about as old as paying for sex. Somebody needs to start gettin’ it right. Each relationship is different, pay as you go…lol

Ok this is def a point that hits home with me. I had a career my ex had a job if he even kept that! It got even worse when I switched companies and made more money it was like he thought he no longer had to work. The new job made it easier on me to handle the bills but he never pulled his weight. I was paying all the stuff I had before I met him plus all the stuff accumulated with him being there. Even down to the car insurance, cell phone, mortgage, health insurance, cable, phone, you name it I paid it. How did it end – DIVORCE, I am not taking care of a grown man!

@Tubbs, Yeah. Issues. I could write a hit movie script on this drama. It’d be a blockbuster, that’s for sure. That’s why he’s an EX and I’m single again…

man oh man FG you opened up a can of worms with this one, hubby and i stay into it bout money, cause i give more than i get, i have no clue why he is like this, but he a snake in the grass when it come to money, it could be cause he just come from that kinda background and he had to get over in order to survive, iono, but we been together for 11 yrs now and he still don’t get that he ain’t gotta lie, trick, manipulate, none of that to get me to give, if i got a dollar, it’s his, simple as that, he don’t have that same attitude, i really can’t ask him for shit when it come to money it’s gon be some mess, so i just say screw it and never ask….it took me yrs to learn that for whatever reason, he will never change, so i had to tell myself look girl he love you he just got issues with money, so either get wise, or leave, i got wise, what’s mine is mine and what’s his is his, he pay certain bills, i pay certain bills, it shouldn’t have to be that way but he makes it like that i was never a money hungry gold digger, and matter fact yestreday i gave him a freaking 100.00 bill just for GP he ain’t have to ask, i did a hustle, gave him some money, now if he did a hustle, he wouldn’t give me shit……i know yall prolly like WHAT??? but that is just the way it is, i used to be hurt, frustrated by it, but i learned and however backwards it sounds that is the reality in my life…..i never really had a man to just say baby i wanna look out for you, i got you whatever it is you don’t have to ask, imma spoil you, i have no clue what that is like, lmao damn that sounds sad when you think bout it ain’t it….
