i make in 2wks what my wife earns in a month,so i end up paying the majority of our expenses,including her car payment.hell, just made her credit card payment. not sure where her checks go? all our bills are scheduled to come due on my paydays. i feel like i'm paying for everything and she's skating by. how many have seperate accounts? how do i get her to pay her fair share?
 
Depends on how much you both make I guess.

Why don't you have a joint account that you both out some money in every month and all the bills (house, groceries, car etc) come out of that. Then have a separate account for each of you for your own expenses.
You will probably still be putting in more than your wife, but at least she will be contributing too.
