Hello, my name is Naomi and I am a hypocrite
My boyfriend of nearly 2 and a half years is the sweetest guy I've ever met, but no matter how hard I try, I cannot stop being a hypocrite towards him.

Mainly, it's about money. Now my parents are not the richest people in the world, but they give me £330 per month to pay rent, food and bills while I'm at uni. This should mean I have over £5000 in my account, instead I have about £2000. My boyfriend's parents can't afford to give him money for uni - too big a mortgage.

So I know I have more money than him but I've spent way more than I should. I'm forever having a go at him for spending money he doesn't have, when I know I somehow waste far more. I make snide little comments at him about whether he really should go out Thursday night and spend all that on alcohol (of course he should, he's a student!)

Thing is, I know I'm a bad, horrible person - I just don't know how to stop! Help!

At least you're (presuamably) getting a shag out of it.
The government here is currently debating how best to take the money of those who have been responsible and redistribute it to those who bought the biggest houses they could with mortgages they couldn't afford when a bubble burst was clearly imminent and I'm not even going to get a reach-around.
