I'm a great one for over simplyfying - My money, Your problem.
This is how it went with my ex - we had a home together, joint mortgage etc,
So long as bills are paid 50/50
Savings acct paid into joint 50/50
I never expected anything, therefore was never disappointed. I paid for my own luxuries and I spent my disposable income how I saw fit, regardless of his opinion. My money, end of story! At times it was a constant battle but that was because it was an abusive controlling relationship on his part.
