As someone who first lived with a man and then by myself, imagine my shock when the groceries that would last us 2 weeks started lasting me 2 months.

That’s why they love 50/50 because they know they use more than 50% of the material and emotional resources in a home so it’s a net positive for them!!

That’s just the financial side. How much did your domestic labour change after he moved in? More dishes, more laundry, more random messes to clean, more clutter etc etc. after all of that we haven’t even mentioned the extra emotional labour they cause.

my husband and I don't do 50/50, he pays more into our household's account because he earns more.

i don’t doubt that this is true, however i feel like this approach doesn’t properly account for inflation

I was married to a man with same salary as me, and we were paycheck to paycheck. We split up and all of the sudden I had $600 budget surplus every month despite paying rent on my own. It was shocking! I was able to save up for a fun divorce trip quickly!

Did you include laundry costs? His clothes are bigger and he washes them more often as he sweats more. Each wash is 80% his clothes 😭

In my first year after my divorce, I managed to save more than we’d saved as a couple in five years of marriage with us both working. The saddest part was until that moment, I believed I was bad with money because that’s what he’d always said about me

I have 3 kids. my shopping bill more than halved when I split up with my ex.
I went from 5 people to 4 in my house and it still halved.
