I know alot of people will flame you for being "cheap" or "selfish" but I agree with you, it also would make me angry. The whole issue here is about respect and the fact that he may not be respecting the fact that even though the account is for both of your needs, he also should do his part to keep the account replenished in case of an emergency.

If you live together and your sharing an account that's one thing but if your not then my question to you is what are you doing? If he doesn't have the money to put in there then he should not be writing checks.. Don't be surprised if he writes a check for the entire amount one day and leaves you high and dry it happened to my best friend.. They shared an account to save for their wedding. She was the only one putting money in.. Just be careful, don't be left the fool.

Uh...why does your boyfriend have the ability to write a check on your account?? I would never have a joint account with a man unless I was married to him! Even then, I would want a separate account as well!

I think that you should take his name off of the checking account until he until he pays you back the money he has already taken out,and he agrees not to put it back when he takes it out from now on.

That is inconsiderate and irresponsible. You should definately check him on that. If he continues, then close the account and open your own. If you all are gonna have a long lasting relationship you have to have boundaries as far as money goes or things could get really ugly. I wish you all the best!

I don't blame you. Money is the #1 reason for separation. Simply put, money is business, and you don't want to mix business with pleasure. I would not have any joint accounts with anyone. Though one day when I meet my dream gurl I'd like to totally spoil her and just open one account for her to splurgh on whatever she wants, but I wouldn't expect anything in return ;)

Sounds like you guys need to go back to having separate accounts.
