Thanks, Beatrice,

The bill-paying thing sounds odd, but he's the sole wage earner and has it set up with direct deposit with his paycheck and most bills are paid on auto-draft.
I get confirmation emails and text alerts, have access to all accounts.

I have credit cards, debit cards, checks... ATM.
He has never tried to limit my spending, or give me grief about it.

Of course, I am considerate.

But I am free to do as I please---for now---within limits.

Believe me, I keep an eye on things.
Although before the you-know-what hit the fan, I trusted him implicitly.

I don't any longer.

We tried splitting up different things, then just me paying bills... it was a mess because we didn't talk much in person,...

I am fine with him continuing to do this because he prides himself on being a good provider and the one thing he likes to remind me that he hasn't done to me (yet) is that he is keeping the finances as they were, not hiding money...etc.

I hope that explains it.

If I see anything fishy, believe me, I'm all over it.
