My (30f) bf (38m) and i have been dating for 3 years and are moving in together in a couple months. I earn maybe about 30k a year; he earns close to 120k. He owns a house, a nice car, and works a fancy job.
The entire time we've been together, the only things that he has randomly (excluding birthdays and Christmases) gifted me with are a puzzle set, 2 pairs of underwear, and chocolate coffee beans. That's ALL i can remember receiving from him. Our meals and experiences are mostly MY expenses -- ESPECIALLY when it was me that wanted to go out.
He buys the groceries.
When I move in in a few months, he said that i will have to share in the expenses. And sure, I guess rent is expected and i cant live there for free...? But i am honestly worried that if i do move in, i will have to pick up a second job to pay for me -- and for us.
Ladies, have your bfs paid or given you things?
Edit: He pays for his OWN groceries; i pay for mine. Whenever i go out, i pick up little things for him (socks, magazine, drinks, chocolate, underwear...); he's not once done that for me.
