RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

Been there, done that, and the benefits are barely anything in the long run. Not doing it again.
I want to ask this genuinely (you don't have to answer if this something private), but doesn't something like that foster resentment?
Being upfornt here, I have no relationship expertise, so I have no framework of how finances look separate vs joined but I have heard about this a lot on the internet and struggle to see how it can implemented in healthy romantic relationship.
Maybe. Didn't for me. She was just emotionally and physically abusive. That's what fostered resentment.
