Money

[jewelzzx]

Ok. This may sound like a weird thread and it probably is, but I'm just wondering what other people's thoughts are. It isn't too long so thanks for reading if you do.
I'm 20 years old have a daughter who will be 2 soon and a partner of 4 years.
When he works he always gives me money and treats me, even without asking and gives money for me to get our daughter stuff.
I don't work and whatever I get a month I have been saving here and there and have managed to save 150 for my daughter in a account, and 470 cash in home in a box. But I haven't told my partner. Because I know if I do it will probably be gone within a week on useless things.
Aibu to save and keep to myself? Non of this money is his it's what I've saved myself, or are you supposed to let your partner know about money you have? I just want to keep saving but feel like I can only manage that if I only know about it.

Totàlly agree with bumblebee 69.
Well done to you 💐
Wish I'd had the sense to start doing this when I was your age instead of blowing the bloody lot.

@cantpick I mean when he gets paid he will give me for example half for one daughter and get anything or everything she needs, I know how much he gets weekly so monthly too :)

@Morporkia yes I get child benefit and my benefit but I am looking for work so I won't be receiving that forever and that's what I save, I'll get everything my daughter needs or buy her nice things then the rest saved, and I save some / most of her child benefit too into her own saving account

Definitely do not tell him. I've been with my other half for over 10 years. We've had a joint account for about 8 years and I totally regret it. He's crap at saving and spends money on pointless tat, food and beer. I'd never had an over draft till we got the account and never been in debt. Keep your money to yourself, if he wants to give you money or treat you then it's his perogative. You could always keep saving then pay for a nice holiday for you all as a suprise for him?

@Ohmygod123 yep that's my only worry I tell him and it somehow gets lower and lower till it's gone even tho he works , it's just more money to spend in some ways he thinks, and yeah that'd be nice!
