Am I just being bitchy?
In my opinion, I feel like my boyfriend really needs to budget. He has bipolar and a few other things and goes through money quick. Like I’m talking, gets at least $500-$600 a check every Friday, but goes through his money by Wednesday at the latest. He owes on a couple tool trucks, has a $500 car payment, and then $300 insurance. Those are the only bills he has because we live with his dad. And he also likes to buy clothes and go out on the weekends. He says he likes to take me out and buy me stuff to spoil me.
Which is cute, but not when we’re about to have two babies and still live in your dad’s house when we’re both over 20. (I’m 21, he’s 24)
I can’t work because I’m high risk so it’s all, unfortunately on him. I was hoping he would start to come up with a plan to help set us up until I can go back to work. But instead, he’s trying to figure out how to buy a truck - which makes NOOO sense to me. His car is fine and is honestly really reasonable for the condition. He plans on doing that and buying some attachment, claiming it’ll “earn him money back when he does side work” but I know it’s really just because he wants a new car. He keeps telling me that his car isn’t “fast” or “cool” enough. That and he already works 12 hours a day, 5 days a week, so when is he going to have the time? And it honestly makes me want to smack him because I really don’t care about his car. the car shouldn’t even be a fucking concern right now when 1.) the car he has is perfectly fine and b) he struggles to save for the payment he even has.
