I am worried myself as my partner who've I've only known since April 2010, is taking his stresses out on me. We can't financially get it together, but that is not what is stressful. It's not communicating about our finances and having different ideas.

Also his old cars are his priority, to the point he has been mentioning we need "car accommodation" if we move in together; and then this fortnight, the transmission has gone in the automatic car, and the other car's rego has expired. I just find it frustrating because he is financially responsible to a degree, but can't quite get it together. Then when this has happened he completely loses the plot.

For myself I am lucky because I don't live with him, so I do find it easier to get my thoughts together and in a positive frame of mind and keep planning for this baby who's coming in a few months. I think if we were living together I would be seeing a counsellor, but I might think about asking about one anyway at my next appointment in a couple of weeks.
