Wow, when I was married, I'd make much more than my exwife, sometimes 7x, we had a joint account but even with separate accounts it would be unthinkable to me to leave my wife with only $300 per month for her expenses and me spending all this money. Can you imagine one of the spouses driving a 15yo car and the other one having a new porsche, that's retarded.
Even one of my coworkers keeps buying toys, new laptop, new kindle fire, etc etc, and he keeps giving everything to his fiancee. I always pick on him about it, but in the end I'm glad he loves her as much as to be so generous with his money with her.
Well, it would be nice of him to, but there's nothing that says he has to. She needs to find someone else she's more compatible with. Saying you have to spend money on someone just because they make more than you makes no sense. I'm assuming he buys her presents and stuff when he's supposed to, if not, then there's a problem.
Discuss your concerns with him. If he doesn't change, stop paying half of the bills, start a savings with your extra money, and let him pay the bills. He appears to be able to afford to pay for everything.
All these above! Absolutely. Since he is splitting expenses down the middle, is he also splitting everything else down the middle? The cooking, the cleaning, the grocery shopping?
I bet not. What a cheapskate you married. Sounds to me as if he is not committed to you being a couple. I don't see any "i" in the word couple, but you two sure have a lot of them. Time to open them (your eyes) and see that all this is his way of preparing for his exit.
It never ceases to amaze me what young women will sign up for in order to have or keep a man.
Just think about it the other way around. A man complaining because his wife doesn't buy him the new golf clubs he wants, the new video game console, etc. all this while she buys herself brand bags and shoes.
