What is a monetarily abusive relationship?

Answer 1

it is where one partner is abusing the others money or earnings. either by spending it all when they did not earn it and the other person did, or by stealing the money, or by refusing to work and making the other person work for them. They usually do not contribute to household bills and expect to live for free. They are normally very bad with money and if refused money will steal it. It can also be where someone is staying purely because of other person's money or financial situation.

Answer 2

If your mate hoards all the money with the intent of possibly giving you an allowance if they feel you deserve it.

Spending money themselves, but wanting to know where you are spending the money.

Never allowing you to make minimal purchases without first getting their OK.

Scanning over grocery lists to criticize if you've spent too much and why did you buy something such as a bag of potato chips.

Not letting you buy your own clothes unless they are with you or simply nixing the idea altogether.

Going on holidays, but you have no spending money.

Answer2: Believe me, this abuse is not going to stop until you take charge and put an end to it. Think about counseling for both of you. If your mate is not agreeable to relationship counseling, then perhaps think about moving on if he does not provide for you.
