curious, why do you guys have separate accounts vs a joint account?

All of our accounts are actually joint. But she has the accounts she's primary on and uses, and I have the ones I pay the bills out of. Trying to manage finances while multiple people spend money out of one account and there are auto-pays for bills from the same account is simply too taxing for me to deal with.
Legally, your premise is correct in most states. Practically it tends to play out differently in a divorce situation.
