Yeah, my H also told me that I didn't need cable or internet. I told him tough, if he has I will have it. We make about the same amount of money and we have had no money problems before this. He tends to spend a lot, but not to the point that I have had to worry about paying bills. And I have always been able to put money in savings. What bugs me about the money is that a couple of months ago he was going to have some dental work done and so we wrote a check for about $5,000. Not to mention when he came back from Iraq he went on a spending spree blowing a couple thousand dollars. I was ok with that at the time because he had been deprived for 7 months. I felt like he deserved it. But now for him to act like I am not entitled to the money that is left blows my mind. It wouldn't even be there if it wasn't for me.
When I came home Thursday the house looked bare. He had moved so much stuff. He had taken everything he felt was his, even the computer that we bought together. Well, I had a computer that I used in college and got that hooked up. That was an ordeal, I was on the phone with the internet company for hours. Then I moved a TV from the bedroom to the living room. Not quite as extravagant as we had, but no big deal, I don't need much.
Yesterday I came home and the house was hot. I went to turn the A/C down and realized why it was so hot. It was broken. The day after he leaved the damn A/C breaks. We are in Texas so it is HOT! I was in a panic, and I actually called him. He told me there was nothing he could do about it. I told him this was OUR house, OUR problem. Again, he said nothing he could do about it. I told him I guess I could call somebody (by this time after hours so I was thinking $$$$$), but I would like it if he would come over as I have no one here and I just felt like I needed him. He came, looked at it and didn't say much. I ended up getting someone to come last night. I actually know a lot of contractors through my job, so I called one of them. I told H he could leave and I would take care of it. ...he was just standing around anyway so after he got here I really couldn't understand why I had wanted him here so badly. The contractor came, fixed it in 20 minutes (just some part had gone bad not the whole unit) and he didn't charge me anything! I was so relieved! That was the biggest relief I have had in a while. By the way, H hasn't called to see if I was dying of heat stroke.
