Today, I told my husband that when I get my birth control taken out later this year, I would like to take a break from it for a while. He just said, "Condoms are too expensive and I don't want to waste $2 every time we do it." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Cheapskate
Today, my boyfriend admitted to me that the reason he won't have sex with me is because "Condoms are too expensive." FML
Strong incel vibes
Today, I told a guy that I was on birth control. He decided that it would be best for us not to continue speaking with each other. I never would've thought taking care of myself would be a deal breaker. FML
Today, my boyfriend informed me that to save money, he's been using the same condom for the last month. FML
After careful consideration…
Today, I told my husband I might want a baby, so he took me to visit his best friend who has a toddler and we stayed for an hour. I no longer want a baby. I want the pill wrapped in 2 condoms and a joint vasectomy/hysterectomy paid for with my non-baby disposable income, and my husband now has a shit eating grin. FML
Red flag
Today, my boyfriend told me that having my own condoms is unattractive, emasculating, and a turn off. According to him it's the man’s responsibility to provide the protection, and the fact that I have my own means I must have been very promiscuous if I needed to have them on hand. I’m allergic to the pill. FML
Today, when I was trying to break up with my boyfriend, I told him how I needed space and time to think. His response was, "Ok, we're out of condoms anyway." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were about to get intimate for the first time. He said he didn't want to use a condom, and that I should just give him one of my birth control pills instead, "so we can still be just as safe". What the hell? FML
Today, I went to the local pharmacy to buy some condoms. When I went to go purchase them, the elderly lady behind the counter took one look at me and said, "Honey, you're your own birth control." FML
Today, I was at the store, when I saw my boyfriend in line in front of me. I looked to see what he was purchasing; it was a pack of condoms. When I questioned him, he said that, "They're for us, babe!" We already have an unopened pack at home, and it's my time of the month. FML
Tiny Tim
Today, the condom slipped off, because my boyfriend refuses to admit that he needs to use smaller condoms. FML

Let him save his money then and take your break!

"Waste" the phonology used regarding this term refers to negative connotations associated with lack of appreciation and on a familiar basis, a cheap piece of shit

Then have him get a vasectomy. Bet you 10 dollars he changes his tune

I was scrolling for this exact comment. Offer to pay for his vasectomy and see how that goes. They're also completely reversable if you're worried about kids down the line.

Vasectomies are considered permanent birth control (that is, not reversible). Pregnancy rates fall by about half even with reversal surgery in < 3 years, and further the longer you wait. Still an option worth considering if you don't want kids, but not one where reversal can or should be counted on.

Get yourself a toy and let him fend for himself! It's sad he won't support you . Hope you sort it out op .

It's your body, OP. I hope you told him to mind his own business.

I think he is just being a pouty douche because A. he might have to take responsibility and B. "condoms don't feel as good". Also, like others have mentioned him calling it a "waste" irks me. If he feels that sex and intimacy s a waste, why is he married to you?

thats mesed up because birth control isnt good for your insides. maybe he needs to be educated he sounds like a dick

I think you might be a bit misinformed about birth control, for one there are many different types, if you're concerned about 'unnatural' hormones the copper IUD just releases copper instead for instance. The pill reduces the risk of some types of cancer so it's not all doom and gloom on that front, also many women (myself included) find themselves in better physical and mental health on it. I know the side effects can be hell for some women but 'bad for your insides' is generally incorrect.

Birth control saved my insides. Or are you telling me bleeding for 10 months is soooo normal for a body to do?

Tell him food is expensive and you will save precious calories by not having sex.
