so PISSED OFF!


If i could just stab someone in the face right now, I would feel SO much better.

My friend was informing me about how much money I waste, when really, I don't waste that much money. I've been saving for months and I've finally reached my goal of 1000 (this was all my tip money). Now i'm putting it aside in a savings account for the baby. The only thing that I spend money on is food and clothes because nothing fits me anymore.

Then Michael starts fussing at me because the crib that i was looking at is about $60 more than the one his mother was looking at, and it doesn't go into a bed. Here's my reasoning. Even if we got the one that magically transforms into a bed, you still have to buy the matresses AND the bed frame separately. By the time you do all that, you've spent as much as you would have ON a bed.

And I'm sitting here like how is he going to say that I waste money when he goes out and wastes MORE than I spend on anything on pointless video games and electronics. But no, I get a new car (because mine broke down), and I buy a few new shirts (since my others don't fit) and suddenly I'm not going to be able to provide for my child??

I asked him about how much he wastes, he said it's okay for him to waste money, he makes more than I do.

I'm SOO pissed at this moment, I don't know what to do

Stabbing him in the face sounds appropriate

I'm sure you don't waste your money.

Ignore them. You're doing fantastic. Saving that much on your tips and putting it aside for your baby is hardly wasting money hun!

Tbh, there's no reason why you're not entitled to spend a little bit of that on YOU! Pick the crib you want, don't just stick to one someone else thinks is better or you'll just end up regretting it and being unhappy with it. Might just be me...but I got really picky over things for LO haha!

You're doing such a good job and don't let anyone tell you otherwise! Stupid boys!

anyway even if he earns more then you, it your baby TOGETHER so there should be no his or her money in terms of that, if that makes sense so he shouldn't be spending his money on games etc blah blah blah your only buying what you NEED so keep it up your doing a good job

Call me when you are setting up for the stabbing session!

My OH Just bought A brand new car!! His was the old version of the Range rover. Thats so much money on a 2009 car instead of a 2003 version! THEY ARE IDENTICAL.

We have fallen out! BIG STYLE. ARGHHHHH

Even though I am 25 weeks, still quite a while to go but bought a cot which does turn into a bed but it wasn't bought for the bed... but still he shouts at me for buying a dress or some uggs! ARGHHHH.

I think he should match what you have saved and add it into the baby's savings fund!

(especially as he makes more than you do )
You have done really well saving up, i am useless!!
