    We have separate finances and always had - he has wanted it that way. I never said if it was a loan or gift - he was in a bind when the engine blew and when his tires blew so I paid for them because I was the only one with the money. Yes he can give me a couple hundred a month to get this all done with but he wont'. He says it's my problem and he says it's not his problem and that's basically what he says.

    WOW.  So he's ok with you filing BANKRUPTCY because he doesn't want to pitch in a little every month?  I'm sorry that makes me sad for you, he should be helping you and supporting you through crummy situations like that instead of making you feel worse and more stressed out.

    If you were to move out and get an apartment or something would that lower your cost of living to where you wouldn't have to file?  Do you feel ok sharing how the financial situation got that bad?  Are you just splitting household bills 50/50 with you making less?

     

    I will share more once I get home later on tonight. I can explain more.

  • Charity, why are you still married to him? haven't you been on the nest for a couple years asking what to do? Time to lawyer up and get your own place, before your credit totally tanks.

    I'm sorry, but kick his asss out.

    This. Also if he's ever laid a hand on you file charges and get his ass deported. What a sack of ***. Seriously. GTFO and stick around here. Hugs.

  • The financial mess is mostly my part. I have the bipolar disorder type 2 (the less severe type, etc.). I had a manic state that lasted about 3 years and I racked up thousands of dollars in credit card debt. I had a part time job outside of my regular job and things were fine and I was able to pay on the debt. I lost that and then everything went to hell. I have a lawyer but still need to pay 1000 to get him paid off to file a case to get a case #, etc. In the meantime, I am getting court papers etc and threatened.

    He pays half of the bills and I pay the other half. There isn't really any wiggle room right now on my end to pay the lawyer etc. Hubby won't give me a dime to help towards it. Though I put an engine in his car and tires before we were married. Probably stupid on my part. His response to that was - well he hasn't come up with a response. He has enough money to still be comfortable and to help me get this paid, but he won't.

    I have ordered that book that you all have suggested. Maybe it will help me make the move I need to. I am a very giving person - too giving and am there for everyone else, but many are not there for me. I have low self esteem and he doesn't help with that either. I was told many things. I am so confused, hurt, and emotional right now.
