Thursday Rush came to town. My BF asked me if he could borrow 200 out of the travel fund and he is going to earn 500 from working with his father painting the houses (his and the two he owns to rent out) so i agreed..
I knew that he got a ticket for 100 so i said take the rest of the money and your allowance money (yes we budget an allowance in every week for both of us) and that will pay for dinner and perhaps a t-shirt or something. He told me he wasnt going to drink at the concert as beer is like 9 bucks a glass...
Anyway half way into the concert he calls me asking to take out 80 so he can buy limited edition sweet shirt he wanted. I admit i didn't want to give him the money but i knew he was going to earn some more and i wouldn't hear the end of it.
Then things turned for the worst when he came home with his friend. We had a 6 pack in the fridge so they came over for a night cap.. no big deal right.. well wrong.. The BF started yelling at me saying that a 6 wasnt enough.. and DEMANDED that i give him money so he can call roadside to get more.. when i said there was no money to give he lost it. Yelling at me and calling me a selfish bitch for holding all HIS money. Even his friend stood up for me saying thats life and we were saving for Australia. He then proceeded to tell his friend i was "selfish bitch" for wanting to go to Australia and should have consulted him first.. um.. i seem to remember him saying he wanted to go back. and how selfish of me wanting to go back and see my family.
I was sooo embarrased and pissed off.
The BF then left when to the bank and took god knows what out of the credit card.. i was super pissed..
All that hard work i had done over the past couple of months keeping out heads above water, paying our debts and getting a plane ticket home was all thrown out the window because my BF was drunk and didn't understand the concept of savings, upcoming bills and the fact we don't have a lot of money at the moment due to debt.
He still wants to play with the big boys (in his mind) whereas i stay home if we don't have money.
I was SO pissed beyond belief. And this is not the first time he has done this. I couldn't even do my June goal recap yesterday cause i was sooo angry. I am still angry about it. He has said sorry and claims he was angry and drunk.. i call BS.. cause he had done it before..
I am sorry that you had to read about it but i had to get it out of my system. My BF has the mentality that we can spent money now as we are getting money later.. no that doesn't work.. he is just spending money WE don't have
Arrrrgggg.. i still have my savings goals.. i just hope they work out..
