Hi all
I returned from maternity leave about 4 weeks ago and I'm due to get my first full (part time) salary after going back.
Me and my partner have always split bills 50/50 despite the fact he has always earned more than me.
He did agree to splitting the bills proportionally when I went back but I hate the fact I will see it as charity.
We both work at the same place, he got promoted about 3 years ago and despite me working so hard I can't seem to get promoted.
As I'm now only working 3 days a week my salary is less than half his. We pay the childcare vouchers through work and he pays the maximum £243 and I pay the rest which is £195.
The childcare is 20% my gross salary and travel is 10%.
I did ask if he would do 4 days a week so I could also do 4 as I really want to carry on paying half but he refused.
Do any of you insist on paying half even though you will have nothing left
