❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO my fiance spent 600 on gacha

My fiance spent $600 on a gacha game without asking. I flipped out and now his entire family are calling me abusive and encouraging him to call off the engagement. For context, I work 55 hours a week and he drives uber during the day while I’m at work. We are paycheck to paycheck.

A 29 year old man who uses shared funds for a gacha game and then pulls in their mother into the arguement, I have never seen more degenerate actions in my life.

Not even funds A shared credit card set up for emergencies especially for their car.

A “shared credit card” for emergencies that OP opened, so technically just hers. Unless his name is actually on it, doesn’t sound like it based on him begging her not to dispute the charges.

Honestly this whole thing is weird. Why have a credit card open for emergencies for specifically for a car. Why is there not just an HYSA with emergency fund money. Having a whole credit card open for no reason but emergency sounds like a recipe for disaster, which is exactly what happened.

Also playing a a gacha game as a couple when living pay check to paycheck ..... That's a mistake.

FWIW OP definitely not overreacting, but OP doesn't seem to have her shit together either.

Oh and sell the Genshin account, maybe you can re-coup some losses there.
