Three years married, my husband proposed split-bill: half mortgage, half groceries, even his mom's hospital bills. I smiled and agreed, then really kept score — who did the housework? Who ran for his mom? I'm a freelance designer, I make my own money. Why should my time be free while his money is accounted for? Slammed the bill and asked for divorce.

Then I started really keeping score — who did the housework? Who ran back and forth for his mom? I'm a freelance designer, I make my own money. Why should my time and effort be free, while every cent of his gets accounted for?
