YTA - You should have just made it clear that your not gonna support someome. Iram that's what it comes down to and it's a perfectly logical conclusion.

Most people don't want to pay for someone else's share so that they have a place to stay and they don't have to work. Being a wife or husband, for most people, isn't an exemption.

The reason I say your an asshole is because there's am implied "or else". But you don't say what that is. Like, "or else what?"

Be upfront whatever follows after that. Maybe it's "or else I'll divorce you" or "or else we're not going to have a joint account anymore" or "or else it's my money not yours".

Legally a wife (or husband) can sit on their ass and not do jack-shit while the other spouse works and is still entitled to a lot of that money in many states.

Legally in many states if soouse1 isn't working and spouse2 files for divorce then soouse1 will be ordered to pay some of their paycheck to spouse2 for awhile. The reason the state made that decision is because citizens got together and decided "hey let's not make their failed marriage our problem"

So pay out clearly what the "or else" is whether it's a divorce or a separation of funds and of course get yourself a lawyer if your spouse is dead-set on sitting on their ass
