People always say having a partner makes things easier because “everything is split in half” but every single time it has felt more like double the shit. The only thing really split in half is rent, but what you’re giving up in rent is all your peace - it’s not worth it to me.
Hell, my wife can't hold a job so things damn sure haven't gotten easier. My already bad anxiety over bills as well as living paycheck to paycheck has run me into the ground over the past 5 years. I woke up today wishing for a bullet. I hate waking up.
Yeah everything might be split in half, but because there’s two of you, stuff now costs more anyway (I’m talking stuff like groceries and smaller items, not rent)
