Hi all,
For some reason it hasn't posted the rest of my question.
You're right about £5700, I'd not looked at it that way.
All I know is they have sent a letter saying I've been over paid- (I used to receive £370 working tax and child tax Inc) per month and they will claw it back by receiving £70 a month until 2021 based on my income.
I'm not a bum who believes I'm entitled to funds. I'm a single mum who works as a nurse 32hrs a week. I physically cannot work more due to school pick ups, drop offs and childcare.
But that wasn't my question.
My question was, is there something fundamentally wrong with my relationship when I feel I can't talk to my boyfriend about this, because he is so successful in his business and I am on the opposite end of the spectrum, when I have nothing.
He counts when it's my turn to buy a take out and even saw me selling clothes to raise funds and said that I 'needn't worry about paying the full amount of our take out' .... He would pay half. Needless to say I cooked instead.
After all my outgoings I am left with £50 a month and I'm scared.
I've not eaten or slept, but when I told my boyfriend of the letter, he replied 'oh no honey, that's a bit rubbish, I don't know what to say'. Then he went out with the lads all night and I didn't hear from him again.
I thought he may have called me to see how I was prior to going out(I've not spoken to him for 5 days, other than text). It would have been nice to hear his voice, but maybe I am expecting too much?
