[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone else find this joint entertainment account weird? I mean, it's not a horrible idea or anything, but I have never heard of anyone doing this.

So I want to know how this came about. Was there tension over who was paying for dates? [/quote]

OP here.  This should answer a number of questions.  The joint entertainment account arose because  the previous arrangement — my partner occasionally picking up checks — was clearly creating tension — are they going to pick up this check?  So I advocated the joint approach:  [b]since we’re together forever, [/b]why shouldn't picking up restaurant checks be [b]the same as married couples with one-pot finances[/b] — it matters not whose card is used to pay the bill.

But my partner, while seeing the (irrefutable) logic of this, was not a fan I think.  They were in a mindset of wanting to be taken out for dinner.[/quote]

Because you aren't committed, you aren't together forever, and you aren't married! [/quote]
