    So does that mean I will get it until January? lol

    Yes he does :eek: ut even though we arent living together I think its best to come off everything so Im not in trouble.

    you will only have to stop claiming if you do live together at that time ;)

    yes you will get it until it comes into force and you are living together :D

    lucky him earning so much. hope his job is not too stressful.

    he's not living with you now and unless he is giving you money to pay for everything? wait until he moves in.

    Hmm he's paid my debts (most off anyway) and no he isnt paying for anything now, but if I tell them and have no money he thinks he should pay for everything and whats left to be split 50/50, he doenst think I should work either :cool: anyway I think I might just tell them now Id hate to do anything wrong :o

    I think you are wrong hun. He is not living with you, and maybe he helps out with debts, etc, but he pays for everything...ok.... and then what is left is split 50/50? so what is left? and how do you split 50/50?

    if you have no income how does that work?

    one thing I would say and please don't be offended, but if you want to work, you should be able to if you can find a job. He shouldn't tell you he will keep you and you don't need to work. If he goes back to his ex or off with another woman, where does that leave you?

    Your thinking how I am ...
    and he means whats left from "his" money after bills is split 50/50 as "fun" money.

    I dont want to ever rely on anyone especially not a man ...

    And you just got a council place with an income of 60k?

    Thats sure one way to work the system. At least my income tax wasn't wasted.

    Have you read my thread? no I dont have an income of 60k, and if I did I sure wouldnt live in this council house! Infact if I had any income I wouldnt live on this council estate where my kids arent safe OK?

    And yes he does, and he works for it. And IF we do plan to stay together he wont live in this council house either ..

    So dont worry you are not doing anything wrong.
