I just don't want to have to rely on anyone else for money. I want to be able to afford things on my own.

But we're a team, we're in this together. We share everything, including our finances.
human
I understand that, but I still want to have my own money. It makes me feel more independent.

I get that, but it's not like I don't have my own money too. We can still have separate accounts for personal expenses, but overall our finances should be joint.
human
I guess that makes sense. But I just want to make sure I'm still able to support myself.

And you will be able to. We're not talking about taking away your independence, we're just trying to make sure we're on the same page about our finances.
human
Okay, I see what you're saying. I'll try to be more open to the idea of shared finances.

And we can always revisit this conversation if we need to. Communication is key.

You're right. And I appreciate you being patient with me as we talk about this.
