I'm pregnant and have been craving ChinesE and a sprite for a week.. My boyfriend says we can't afford it so I was like can I at least get my sprite? No, but he can have a 40 of Mickeys every night... Makes me so mad! Plus I'm really sick and haven't been eating well..

Why can he spend money and you can't?

It doesn't seem wise to be having another baby with someone who won't even buy you a sprite.

My thoughts exactly.. But then again.. isn't there a corner store close by that you can walk to to get at least your sprite? Or grab it when you go grocery shopping??

  Just so you know and this is not uplifting yet not unkind.  .  . 

  If he works and the money is his to spend as he wishes, this will not change.

  Just experience talking.

  Hub just bought a storage unit worth $5000.00 and I have to tighten the belt on groceries.  He couldn't afford the registration on the vehicles and has 2 of them sitting on ramps with the oil out of them and can't afford oil, but he bought a storage unit????

  He also bought a 1940 Ford truck that has sat in the yard for 2 years, not shedded, not running , not doing anything.  You should have seen him when I put some hanging baskets on it though,  You would've thought it was a china teacup.  He threw them off and told me never to touch the truck again.  Oh well, because I am spiteful, I touch it everyday.  (A little childish I know)  It's just something I can do in defiance!

  It will never change.

Eek. Sounds like he not only has control issues, but possibly a drinking issue...?

Your whole post as me concerned.

Basically your saying, he works so its his money and he does what he wants with it and you have no say? And your having a child with him why?


Honestly if I were you I'd seriously re think this relationship. It sounds to me that he is very controlling, which isnt healthy for you or baby or future baby.
