I dont make a lot of money, lets say >60k at the moment. Ive been starting a new career and expect it to go up.
Just had a major fight (again) she ran off with both wedding rings (for some reason) to her friend’s house.
I just crunched the numbers, it looks like 25% of my income went to her directly for her to have spending money, random gifts, and to support her ill father who lives overseas. Is that a lot?

On the surface, it really doesn’t seem like a lot.
But there’s a lot of information that you don’t give.
What percentage of your income is spent on housing, groceries, vehicle, credit and general living expenses?
Have you agreed on a certain amount of spending money? What can you afford? Do you argue about money because there isn’t a clear understanding?
You really need to find out what each other’s expectations are and work out how to move forward.
I would recommend not keeping track of such things, keeping score tends to lead to resentment.
