Hey tmeinke301

From what you’re saying, and if you’re asking, I think this is a bad decision. Marriage only makes things more difficult, and if you don’t have that foundation and mutual respect for one another, getting married won’t fix that. You’ll only create a trap for yourself you’ll have to get out of later. Break it off now.

BTW, I used to be in your situation in terms of finances–my bf made a lot more than I did. BUT, he never questioned my purchases, or attempted to devalue me because I didn’t make more money. Money does not determine the value of a person. And if your fiance doesn’t get that concept now, he never will. You’re not his maid either, ps. A marriage is a partnership, not feudalism. You’re not a peasant working for scraps. Puh-lease.

Also, maybe it’s time to value yourself. The next time he complains about the house and mentions how broke you are, tell him to get some manners. (I get so mad about this kind of stuff!) Keeping a home is ‘work’, AND you don’t get paid for it, which makes it worse. AND on top of that, you have to hear his complaining? Um, NO. Hey, why don’t you present a bill to him for all the work you do, PLUS the amount of time you spend conversing with him about his ‘dissatisfaction’. You’d wind up making more money than him. Seriously…

Good luck! Let us know what happens!
