@category12 @Zaphodsotherhead thank you all for your advice and support, I'm pleased to tell you I grew a pair and had the chat... admittedly I did start it off by saying I'm going to start weekends.. that got the conversation broke. I went on to show him my exact income and out come. It's resulted in him saying as he will up his side. Huge relief! If I hadn't had your support I wouldn't have said anything so thank you. As for the counselling I do need to look into some therapy to support me for future help with my inability to just come out with stuff. Thank you x

As others say if you're not happy with the financials in the relationship then speak up and deal with it.

Expecting to take money off his son is beyond unreasonable.

Good result. Well done op Smile

Well done @greecedig. I know how it feels - I'm not the most assertive person in the world and I will put up with less-than-optimal behaviour sometimes rather than say something!

Glad it had a happy outcome. Thanks for updating.
