Deep dives

Water Bill Woes

The writer's fiance spends an excessive amount of time in the shower, up to three hours at a time, and it is impacting the water and electric bill, which can reach around $600. The fiance uses the shower as an escape and spends time on his phone or doing other things. This puts extra pressure on the writer, who is responsible for taking care of their four children and household duties while he is absent. The writer is seeking advice on how to address the issue and find a solution.
