Kissak - wow, he's asking you for allowance?:) I hope that works out well. I know the finances can be a huge stress. My H has also never been great with money - he is the spender and I am the saver and both of us have magnified that during his MLC (mine out of self preservation and trying to protect our kids as our finances are still very much joint).
My hopes are that he will if we R finally agree to a budget at least. I'm sure in his MLC mind that is "controlling" but I just see it as being a responsible adult.
Are you able to work through hurts/feelings of the past few years with your H yet?
