Today, my fiancé and I had a fight over household expenses. He's never had a job in his life, but this didn't stop him demanding that I get another full-time job to pay for video games and beer. FML

Kick the bum out

Today, after spending money on all the furniture and decor in our apartment, paying rent every month from my bank account, paying for all the groceries, and paying for all the dog supplies, my fiance asked why I don't keep saving thousands of dollars every month, while he pays for none of it. FML

Today, my boyfriend got mad at me because I wouldn't use $5,000 to build him a new gaming computer with my surrogate compensation, even though he basically refuses to get a job. FML

Today, I asked my boyfriend to help me with groceries, since the last of my money went to last week's groceries. His response was to start a fight, then tell me it's my fault my daughter acts the way she does, which is when he finally got me to break down and cry. I'm pregnant with his kid, and I also pay 90% of our bills. FML

Food fight

Today, my fiancé and I had a fight because he wouldn't let me get what I wanted to eat, even though it was my money. He said, "It's way too many calories. I'm supposed to help you lose weight." When I pointed out that I had given up a month ago, he looked at me and said, "Yeah, I can tell." FML

Today, my boyfriend asked me to pick up a few things from the store for him while he was at work. After picking up everything he asked for, I wasn't left with much money so I used $50 from my account. When he got home he then grumbled about me spending all of "his" money. FML

Today, my dad screamed at me because I've been "spending too much money". He's been out of a job for 4 months and I've been giving him 300 dollars a month to help pay for bills... and his beer. FML

Today, my boyfriend keeps mentioning how well his new job pays, while I don’t have any income. He then got upset when I expected him to pay for the groceries I got on my way to his new place. What I bought was stuff I needed so I could cook for him, and for me to eat while I’m there, cleaning and fixing stuff for him. FML

Today, I asked my husband to be a little more responsible, pick up after himself, and spend a little less. I earn more than he does, so it's usually my money that he splurges. He has gone on a non-stop tantrum for the past 5 hours, giving me the cold shoulder, and shouting at me. What have I gotten myself into? FML

Today, my fiancé refused to talk to me because I'm "an alcoholic". I only started drinking like this after we moved in together and he brought me alcohol every day, because he's an alcoholic. FML

Today, my husband finally admitted that he squandered the last three months of my share of the rent on booze. He then blamed me, demanded more money, asked for a divorce, and stormed out. When he returned he asked, "How am I the bad guy?" FML

I do love video games even as a 17 year old guy (nintendo nerd lol) but that's just asking too much of his loved ones. I usually only ask for video games if I'm about to take a long trip away from home or something. if I were home, I'd actually try to make money to buy the video games I wanted. lady, dump this guy. he clearly isn't conscious of the work needed to meet his frivolous demands and needs to know what real life is like. seriously >:(

why can't he not have a job. is it because he is a man. that is really sextis. what about women haveing equal rights you people saying he is a loser and needs to get his act together are just agreeing with the statement that men are the providers. if you and other women want to be equals to men then you shouldn't be complaining about a stay at home man.

that's not the point of the people saying the guy is a lazy bum. it's the fact that he's demanding too much of his hard-working fiancé even though he doesn't do anything else. he's being completely stupid about his demands and he needs to recheck his attitude because it needs major adjusting.

It's not because he's a man. It's because he's greedy and unappreciative.

huh excuse me? no one ever said anything about a stay at home man. But a lazy drunk stay at home man who treats is fiance like that is no good to anyone and deserves to get is ass kicked all the way back to mom's house
