Would it bother you if you found out your partner lied about what they earn?

He earns 30k less than what he told me and was bragging about.

It makes no difference really to me as I have my own money but he was constantly trying to make me feel small.

Sounds like he has low confidence and self-esteem issues. He might be very insecure and he projects it onto you out of jealousy of your income

@SouthernGuy1987 I don't see why when my income isn't as much as what he earns anyways. But the thing is I've been transparent from the start. He knew what I was earning and how much less I was going to get on mat leave. Which is why when we discussed moving in together we discussed being able to cover the bills.
