My (32M) Bf accused me (24F) of being a gold digger… He has no gold.
I live with my Bf. We are poor.
We live in a small flat with a bathroom so small I can take a shit, wash my hands and have a shower all at the same time.
I work 2 jobs to keep us afloat, I’m a bartender at night and a hairdresser by day. He’s a delivery driver that works flexible hours but I would say he only works 3 hours and spends the rest of his time “investing in crypto”.
I do not mind being the breadwinner, but that is what I am, I am the breadwinner hands down. Anytime I ask him to work more and earn money, he says he will and never does and its caused arguments recently.
Our landlord has increased our rent recently and I’ve asked for his financial help for OUR flat but he says he’s put his money into investments the “government can’t touch” and by that, he means his crypto scheme.
I eventually put my foot down and told him we don’t have money for investments. We need housing, electricity, water, food.
He told me that all I talk about is taking his assets, that I’m a gold digger.
I was so taken aback. I told him that I work my butt off for him and if I wanted to be a gold digger I wouldn’t be in this tiny shoe box flat with him.
That I wouldn’t be spending my evenings trying to figure out how to make dinner with what little food I found in our cupboards.
He asked me if I could go somewhere else because he needed space but we live in a 1 room apartment where am I supposed to go, in the kitchen sink?
The more I think about it the more angry it makes me.
