My fiancé will be graduating soon. I’ve been the sole income earner the entire time she’s been in school. It’s actually been really shitty, I don’t make a ton of money so we haven’t been able to do anything fun for a long time now considering I’m squirreling away all extra money for our future wedding.
Over the weekend she brought up taking a vacation after her graduation to celebrate. I told her there’s no way my boss would give me the time off and we can’t afford it even if he could. She said I could at least try and if I couldn’t then she could go with her sister. That she deserves some time to recharge before jumping into the work force because who knows how long it’ll be before she could take time like that for herself. As far as paying for it, she wants to dip into our wedding savings.
I didn’t expect her to start working the day after graduating or anything, but this is ridiculous. When exactly do I get time to “recharge”? I’ve been covering everything and putting aside money for our wedding and now I’m supposed to be ok using that hard earned money to foot the bill for a beach vaycay for her and her sister?
I told her there’s no way, but she’s not hearing me. She already knows where she wants to go and is giving me bullshit about how the wedding fund is both of our money, she should be able to use some of it. I’m hoping this is just one of her crazy moments and she comes back around to reality. I’m proud of what she’s accomplished, but more cake and party proud, not week long vacation at a resort proud.
there doesn't seem to be anything here
