25yearsmlc, she complained i didn't compliment her enough. when i started doing it more she actually asked me to stop, so stupid me, i did. she said it made her uncomfortable

as for the finances, i always spent minimal cash on myself and actually enjoyed her buying herself things, what i should have done is been more of a leader regarding financial control as she never believed in a budget

in an odd twist, with my dad passing, i'll likely inherit enough to clear much of the debt, yet i realize inheritance is not to be considered shared assets. not that i wave it at her, nor is she contesting, in fact she very accommodating that way

i also worked with our bank this past week to settle some of the more immediate debt concerns. which also helps should we go our separate ways
