re: bloop.

Quoting P.S I'm pregnant ♥1:" I'm single and SO is allowing me to stay at home with my son and our bun in the oven. If your name is ... [snip!] ... then it might be a bit of a fight to kwep it in a separation, but you have two of his kids so a judge might rule I y our favor."

See, i don't think jason would be a huge dick and be like, 'no, you can't have a way to transport our kids', but, it's something i think about definitely.

<blockquote><b>Quoting KNZ.:</b>" But things like the van, my name's on it..so if we were to separate, could i take it with me? It annoys ... [snip!] ... & me being a SAHM (no longer having to pay child support/daycare/etc) & he's by no means financially hurting. "</blockquote>

Could you clarify "your name is on it"? When you got it, did you sign the paperwork together or is your name just on the insurance.

Quoting The Doctor:" I would say if you're nervous and you feel comfortable talking to him about it, ask if he'd feel comfortable ... [snip!] ... if he'd feel comfortable putting some money in your account each month that would be reserved for unforseen situations. Yaknow?"

oh he'd just take that as me planning to leave eventually, HA.

i just want the stuff that we have (especially since i'm the one who does the actual shopping for it) to feel like OURS.
and i think he thinks i do feel that way, but, yeah.

Like, he calls the van mine, but, it still kinda feels like i'm driving his van.

Ahh, okay, by SAHM I assumed you didn't have any income from a job coming in. Babysitting is a job.

I've been a single SAHM/student for a bit when i was younger.
My parents said they'd help support me 'n the kids as long as i was still working towards my BA, etc. ha

Hmmm, yeah I hear you.

Maybe it's just one of those things that will take time to feel like "ours" instead of "mine" and "yours"?

I think if it really worries you it would be good to at least have a conversation about it, but maybe it will just take time and getting used to being together again. <3

Ok. So it's "His Name or Your Name"

That's how our cars are registered. In that case, either one could take it.

Good point, that could totally be it.
I mean, we both have no intentions of going anywhere, but, things happen, haha.
Thank you for all the advice!

They denied me. I buy food on a credit card.

My parents supported me while I was in college. Couldn't have done it without them.
