[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 262543, member: 6546"] WhyMe and DaisyLover-- You are both correct. He is putting his list of toys ahead of everyone's else's needs....AND he seems unwilling to make the sacrifices necessary to finance all of this stuff. That's why I am so frustrated. I feel like I am trying so hard to be the "responsible one"....and he is looking at me like I am denying him the things that are really important to him. As far as the medical bills....we have paid off all of the smaller ones and are just down to making monthly payments on the last big bill--which is now down to about $1200. So we were sending $100 per month to the hospital. Which, he wants to just stop completely in order to put the $100 per month toward the credit card to pay for the car. I don't mind that he wants things.....but I don't understand why he doesn't seem to grasp that money does not grow on trees. {And that's why I do the bills every month. Otherwise, we blow the paycheck on pizza and toys and then have nothing left to pay the rent.} And I need to try and get through to him in a way that doesn't make him feel like I am being the "bad guy". Thanks for letting me vent about this.... --DaisyF [/QUOTE]
