First Timer

[wolverine1997]

Question to you all. How should I handle this? Since my wife has become a WAW, she obtained her own bank account and started managing her own money seperate from the family account. Once she did that I took her name off of the family account. At the same time though, she stopped regularly contributing to the household expenses. I basically pay for everything. At times she will pay the phone or electric bill or leave me some cash to do so.

Recently though, she hasn't paid any bills or volunteerd any cash. She uses her own money to pay her own personal bills and usually runs out of cash before her next payday. Yesterday she got paid and didn't leave me any money as usual. I got a little fed up and asked her if she was planning on helping me pay any bills this month. She just asked me what bills needed to be paid. I told her all of them. I am now waiting to see what she does next. I am getting tired of going through this with her.

How should I best handle this? I would rather she just give me cash since I know that she will not regularly pay any bills on time. She is terrible at managing money, thus I have paid all the bills for the last 10 years or so.
