I'm gonna sound like a whinger here but I have to get it off my chest. It feels like every month I plan my money to perfection, and stick to it as well, but I always end up subsidising other people which sets me back. Problem is when it's the b/f I can't exactly say no because it's usually something that affects us both. He is just not mse at all and I can't understand where all his money goes because most of the bills and things come out of my accout (simply because I lived here first and it was all already set up). I swear he spends it all on food for work!
Grr rant over.
I completely understand your frustrations. OH had not cancelled his gym membership so has incurred a £35 bank charge. As he's not working at the mo' it's coning out of my already miniscule budget. I've now made him agree to allow me to manage his account when he's working and i've opened a seperate account for his spending money to go into.
My stolen wiper blades also added a £28 deficit to my budget :eek:

Boysma, yes he does give me half towards all of the shared stuff, I should probably have mentioned that before making him sound like a total !!!!! Hopeful, I wish I could do that for him but I don't know, I think I would feel like I was being a bit too pushy with us only being boyfriend/girlfriend. He does have a few debts but they are pretty small and I reckon I could clear them for him quicker than I could clear mine through a bit of strategic padding and less wastage! :money: He hates talking about budgeting too but I can't understand why. Surely anything that gives you more money to spend on yourself is a good thing! :A
Anyway here I go again, I should shut up now, moaning minnie! :rotfl: Have been bad and not been to the gym again today as I have loads of work to be doing booo!
