Husband cannot save

Married for years now , Husband supports his family, has been working and cannot have savings. One time i was pregnant and unemployed. 9 months husband couldn't save money to take me to the hospital. I had to borrow him 100k the day i was to go in labour from my unemployed savings, so he could pay my hospital bills. Goes out drinking every blessed Night. Managed to relocate to the Uk with my supporting and my family 50%. Still same situation cannot save for rainy days . Should have an extra of 500 pounds after paying bills and stuff, but still is always broke. I believe he goes out every evening to smoke and spend the money. I always step in for an emergency spending, has always . Otherwise things will be south. I used to be able to save befor i was married but now i cannot cos i have to constantly cover for him . Its stressful cos he shows no other affection except he wants sex and is angry when i decline cos i am mayb tired or stressed. Makes no effort to upgrade himself or get another job. while i am constantly training for a course or another. I am trying to hang on . Its been 10 years now and i cannot say i am enjoying my marriage. Makes no effort to celebrate special momemts like wedding anniversary etc.

Why are you with him?
Why are you allowing yourself to live in this miserable way?

Look at yourself and realise you deserve so much more.

If you are not enjoying your marriage, you don't have to stay in it. You are not there just for his sexual or financial benefit.

Perhaps not a thread for the women's health topic - report and ask to get relocated to money matters or relationships?
