How did you and your partner go about handling the combining of incomes and expenses? I've known several people who chose to maintain their separate accounts and either split bills 50/50 or "you pay cable, I'll pay electric and water" kind of thing.
FH and I have our own accounts, but we added our names to eachothers. I pay all the bills as they come out and we do a funds transfer every week.
**I should note, I'm an accounting professional and he's a truck driver, so numbers are my fave and he's only home 34 hours a week and would rather not spend time looking at that stuff LOL
Did you have a different solution or another idea that's working well? Did it cause any tension? Do you see ways such tension could have been avoided or did you learn anything as you got used to it?
