In this episode of the Open Yun Opinion podcast, we delve into how couples split expenses. It can be a tricky subject for many couples, whether they are newly dating or have been together for years. We discuss different methods for splitting expenses, such as dividing them equally based on income or who pays for what. We also explore the importance of communication and setting boundaries regarding relationships' finances.
Disagreements over money can strain relationships. Couples with different views on managing finances may struggle to split expenses and argue over even the smallest expenses. These arguments can lead to resentment and frustration and, in some cases, damage the relationship. Couples should communicate their financial goals, values, and expectations openly to avoid these pitfalls and maintain a healthy relationship. Trust issues and power imbalances can arise if two people cannot find common ground. To prevent this, couples need to work together and find a way to manage their finances that works for both of them.
Join us as Debbie and Jazmin navigate this common issue and provide helpful tips for couples navigating their finances together.
