My boyfriend told me he's started matched betting...which would be fine ( I think as I know nothing about it) except he's used £500 of the savings he had saved towards our holiday. It's a booked holiday and we need to pay the deposit by June. He says he has already made £200 so now has £700
I mean that's all very well but I'm pissed off he just told me when he did it a ' few days ago' I'm also contributing and like he said it's ' his money' ( we don't live together yet but plan to) his past history he's been very bad with money choices ( investing money in money making schemes that have all failed and he has ended up in debt) which we've sorted and moved on. But tonight I've got very upset to then his reaction is I'm a bitch and gets nasty - defensive
He cant see why I'm upset
Anyone give me some reassurance that this matched betting is ok?! Don't think im being unreasonable? Especially after in the past he's got into debt and I have a lot to think about and we only started talking about moving in together last weekend
Just think he could at least told me - not asked me or anything just out of respect as that money he told me he would save and pay for part of the holiday (I work part time and he's full time and he's always paying his way, if more more kind of thing )
Your thoughts would be very much appreciated x
