Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my husband just told me that he no longer loves me but keeps me around to handle his finances. FML
Today, my husband suggested we get divorced, "for tax purposes". FML
Today, my husband of 30 years told me that he thought we should 'just be friends'. FML
Today, my husband got paid. I checked our bank account and was shocked to see we'd only received $300. I called him, insisting that there was some mistake. He said he'd started a new bank account in his name so he could manage our money on his own, and the $300 was my "allowance". I now want a divorce. FML
Today, my wife said she wants a divorce. Three days ago, I added her onto the title to my house, my bank accounts, and my business. FML
Today, I told my husband I wanted a divorce. He told me he didn't. End of discussion. FML
Today, my husband said he wouldn't be talking to me for weeks, because I didn't buy him weed. Yeah, I paid all the bills and the rent this month. FML
Today, my husband of 12 years announced that he wants a divorce and that he hadn't liked me in YEARS. FML
Today, I found out my husband of one year has been renting his old batchelor's apartment in secret, because he is unsure if he wants to stay married to me, and we are broke. FML
Today, my husband finally admitted that he squandered the last three months of my share of the rent on booze. He then blamed me, demanded more money, asked for a divorce, and stormed out. When he returned he asked, "How am I the bad guy?" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I personally think the time to talk about that would've been when they got engaged!
1PersonIsMyWorld 22
makes me wonder if he has expenses he doesn't want op to know about..

#15, valid point. It's probably a good idea to know your partner a little better prior to engagement haha

#82 there are people extremely adverse to jiont bankaccounts due to the fact, that they had their money taken by a previous partner, through a joint bank account, or witness someonr go through it. He could be hiding something, but thats slim chance.

Sorry op! Too bad you weren't able to figure out that he wasn't serious about "being joined" before you got married.

Stop try to steal his money and you wouldn't have this problem

So just because a woman wants to get a joint bank account with her HUSBAND means she's a gold digger, and she's trying to steal all of his money?

I like how you're so sure of yourself, 5. However, I doubt that is the case.

Try talking to him, he may have an understandable reason.

Isn't that the opposite of good ?

@#77 That, my friend, is called sarcasm.

Did he come into the marriage with a lot more money than you? That might be a reason for not wanting to combine funds.

Even if that was the case, it's still not a valid reason.

Then it's a simple issue: each of you keep your separate accounts. Create a new, joint account. Each of you can then put funds into this new, shared account from your separate accounts. This would be a first step to letting him - both of you - feel comfortable with having a joint account.

great idea #23...I'd do that.
slackerjoe 22
that's what my wife and I did. it works just fine and nobody had to put all of their money up for grabs.

#23. So many people do that when they move in together and it's a great idea, each deposits enough for the bills and groceries while keeping money in their own accounts as well and it's saved a lot of couples from fights about money

That's what my parents have done, although my dad only adds money when it's needed, and they very rarely use it. If there was money in there all the time, my mum would spend it all.

It was probably for the better then if that's how he reacted...

Clearly he is having second doubts about such a bug commitment. Some people just have trouble with change.
