So question- I’ve been considering boundaries a lot recently. While I’m not trying to create a bigger gap my W spends money like it’s going out of style in the last six months and it’s got me thinking maybe about splitting checking accounts. She tends to dominate spending and decide what needs to be bought ASAP. I’m not cool with it but not sure if this is going to be a bad idea. For me it’s about creating some security for things getting worse. Thoughts?
I have no idea how much $$$ my W diverted from our joint accounts during her "planning" phase. After I determined I could no longer trust her, I opened a new bank account and had my paycheck deposited there. I was then able to transfer my share of the "real bills" into the joint account. Certain things are OK before, but not after divorce paperwork is filed. Definitely get professional advise.
