Yos agony auntYou need to stop putting money into the joint account altogether. Pay any bills you have to pay out of your own money, and if he needs to contribute, you need to get that money from him.

It's a horrible, messy situation to be in, but the bottom line is, if he's willing to take your money out of the account, you have to not put any in.

Overall you need to separate your finances as fast as you can. That means separating your lives and having no financial dependencies.
