Splitting bills AIBU

[Morgan14]

My boyfriend wants to live with me and we are talking about how to split bills. I live in a nice house with my 3 DC so he wants to come and live with us in our current property. I currently pay all the rent and all the household bills obviously. He proposes that he moves in and gives me £70 per week towards bills (he works full time and earns considerably more than me) and that he will give me a card to his account that I can draw extra money out if I need it. To me this feels demeaning. I don't want to ask him if I can draw extra money. I'm not sure how it makes me feel but it doesn't feel good. AIBU??

I never even thought about the reduction in child maintenance for his dd. Are you coming back op?

To give do the benefit over doubt, maybe the flat was the first place he found or could afford, maybe the £70 was a random figure and he hadn't actually thought it through, and maybe he thought that the card showed he trusted op with his money...

Howver, as everyone up thread has said, a conversation needs to be had about the way forward and the realities of living together.

Whatever happens, hope it works out for you.

FFS a school leaver pays more than that! What a child

He doesn't trust OP with money. OP says the card will be for an account with limited money and she's only expected to use it in emergencies.

I bet he thinks he can chuck £50 into it and OP will be too proud to use it.

Is The OP ever coming back?!
