We React to a Reddit AITA About Splitting Money With Your Partner (Ep 124)13 aug17 min

<p>Ever kept a secret tally of what your partner owes you? Or have your partner agree to something and then not hold up their end of the agreement? </p><p>This week we&#39;re digging into a Reddit AITA post about a couple stuck in a slow-motion money standoff, and it&#39;s messier (and more relatable) than it sounds.</p><p>The original poster has been quietly tracking IOUs for over a year: Venmo requests that go unanswered, dinners he always ends up covering, and a running total that&#39;s crept past a thousand dollars. He wants to know if keeping that list makes him the asshole.</p><p>We dig into:</p><p>- Why &quot;not the asshole&quot; doesn&#39;t mean the relationship is actually fine</p><p>- The difference between tracking money and avoiding a real conversation</p><p>- What a shared &quot;fun account&quot; could solve that a Venmo request never will</p><p>- Why a cohabitation agreement is worth the awkward conversation, especially when only one of you owns the home</p><p>This one&#39;s a good gut check for anyone who&#39;s ever let a money frustration fester instead of naming it out loud.</p><p>Connect with us:</p><p>Book a free call with Val (financial planner): https://calendly.com/valerie-stratford</p><p>Book a free call with Sherry (financial coach): https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=17480698&amp;appointmentType=25737393</p><p>Val&#39;s Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/you.me.and.money</p><p>Sherry&#39;s Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/moneymindsetfc</p><p>Podcast Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/mind.money.adhd.podcast</p><p>Sherry&#39;s TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@moneymindsetcoaching</p><p><br></p>
