[quote=Anonymous]I was just finishing college and he was 5 years into a good career. He had a 401K, healthy savings, and budget for a vacation every year. I had a checking account with $400 in it. Honestly, we just kept separate finances for the first few years. I didn't want to lean on him, financially speaking. Once I was on my own feet and doing as well as he was, we combined finances. It wasn't too hard because I knew it was temporary. The awkward times were when he wanted to do something together, and I just had to be like "sorry, can't afford it ... You can go by yourself or buy me a ticket if you really want to" (he generally wanted to more often than I was comfortable with). [/quote]
