Have i been making mistakes too long part 5

[tkdmme]

Something I forgot about last night. As soon as the W came home she asked if I had one of her credit cards. I looked through my wallet and I did not have it. She said "so you didn't spend 35 at the circle K on the 25th". I thought to myself "if I don't have the card how could I use it". I then replied no but you may need to cancel the card because apparently someone has it and is using it.

Why would I take her credit card. I think she is trying to find me doing something wrong. I get the blame for pretty much anything that happens these days. Which leads me to my next question.

Should I get a separate bank account and split her bills from mine? Right now we have one bank account and I am responsible for making sure the bills get paid. She has complained several times over the past few months that she doesn't like to ask me if she needs money for something.

The problem with splitting the account and the bills at this point is that she doesn't make enough money to pay her own bills much less half of the shared bills.

In a way I want to split it up. It would take some of the pressure off of me. When she was responsible for paying the bills, our power or water would often be shut off. Not because we didn't have the money but because she would forget to pay it.

Another reason I don't want to split the bills is because I think would lead to fights. I would have to constantly put money in her account to cover her half of the bills.

This is not a cut and dry decision.

Any thoughts or experiences.
