Sharing Expenses with a Live-in Boyfriend?
I am confused by this post becasue it sounds like, the way it as written, he was upset that you wanted to pay for it: grocery I took something and told him Im gonna pay for it. On further reflection, it must be a typo. Thats the only thing that makes sense...

I dont believe this is a bedbug. I sadly do have bedbug experience, and they are not oval unless they are engorged with blood (yeah I know, gross) and you can tell that if you squish it and blood comes out. When in a non-fed state they are flat as a tiny penny...
