Husband wants bike we just cant afford!
Comments

Well I just thought id update.
We had a long talk on Tuesday night, he has agreed to wait for the bike, till we are more financially stable and when the kids are a bit older, there are still other issues that werent mentioned on here that we have and we have agreed to give ourselves a month and if things dont improve he will move out for a bit.
Although I have to say things are improving already, he was offered a job on Thursday, its doing something he wants to do, its still only temping but may give him the experience he needs for future jobs, he started that on Friday.
We are also looking to find things to do as a family once a week too, preferably for free.
Also, his friend has now got back with his wife so hopefully he wont be interfering (sorry spelling) too much
So far so good.0 -
glad he is making the effort to get things back on track,I hope it all works out for you.
I think sometimes losing a job can make people go off track for a while so hopefully it was that causing his behaviour.
look after yourself and the kiddies and don't forget to pop on the debt free wannabee board for advice.0
