# Tell us: are finances shared in your relationship, and if not, why not?

We’d like to hear from people in a relationship how they handle personal finances with their partner, and how their approach is working.

We’re interested to hear how you are navigating the topic of money in your relationship, whether you and your partner share finances in part or in full or keep them separate, and how you feel your approach is working, for yourself and for your partner.

What has influenced your and your partner’s decision to share or separate your finances, and is the topic a conflict in your relationship? Tell us.

## Share your views and experience

Traditionally, couples merged their finances at least after marriage, but today many couples do not.
