You raise a child together but have separate finances? Yeah no wonder it's causing tension between you. Why do you have separate groceries of all things?

We don’t have separate groceries. We separate our finances in which a lot of couples do.

So it's your job to pay for groceries?

I know a lot of couples that have completely separate finances, but not any with kids. Especially when one works more or earns more. I guess there's no reason it couldn't be done though.

But it's perfectly normal to want to hold things over his head when he's holding other things over yours.
