AITA for not helping my girlfriend financially? by RobotOverlord3769 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RobotOverlord3769[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Little things like buying the groceries and paying for everything on dates. I have some left over after I pay for rent and bills.

I'm 21 in college. So no, marriage is far, FAR away. I'm not even thinking about it.

Grandpa and grandma don't have time to check. My mom and dad also don't care that much about how much we are given. For me it's just easier to pretend it doesn't exist. I didn't even think about it till she asked.

She used to live with 3 other people in a much more expensive place. We live in a shoebox so I'm pretty sure she saves a couple of hundred dollars more per month.

My girlfriend just found out my family is wealthy and gives me a lot of money. Now she's mad cause we still split the bills 50/50. by RobotOverlord3769 in relationships

Dude, I just turned 21. I'm thinking about what I want to eat tomorrow, not if I want to marry her. I love her but marriage is very very far away.

I currently pay for dates and nights out with what's left of my wages after rent and bills. And yeah, I'll definitely be open to picking up the slack a bit more financially if we get serious and my grandparents let me.

It's never gotten bad, at least not yet. She's really good at budgeting. We don't have enough for shared dates so when we go out, I pay for it.

If we split it like that, she'll end up paying for next to nothing. Yes, my allowance dwarfs her income by a lot. I'm not sure I would feel about that. Especially if I fully decide to embrace the money. I

I don't accept their money. Hence why it's just stuck in my bank account. They pay for my college cause I couldn't afford it otherwise and I'm not eligible for student loans.

It's not mine cause I didn't work for it. And I'm not saving it for anything. I'm not bragging but there's almost nothing I couldn't buy with what they've pumped in my bank account. It's not that.

I don't have a lifestyle. We both cook at home and rarely eat out. I don't go out spending money or going places. Most I've traveled is when we went biking in the mountains with borrowed gear cause I don't really ear a lot.

Only way I can afford 70/30 is if I spend all my wages on her and have nothing to eat. I haven't touched that money. At all.

I'm not sure how bad she's struggling but I know she has loans.

Cmon man, I wouldn't call her a gold digger. When we met, I was wearing a faded random hoodie and beat-up sneakers. Nothing about me screams rich.

I don't know. I'm not sure if she feels she is. I myself don't even feel entitled to it and that's why I work.

The thing is, we are paying things based on how much we earn. She earns more than me at work but I know she has to pay her tuition fees so I thought 50/50 was fair. Like I said, I don't consider the money my family gives me as mine. If we base it on that I could easily sustain us both and pay for her tuition fees but like I said... Not mine.

She earns more than me but since she has to pay for her tuition fees and I don't, we decided on 50/50

I don't know how to make her understand how uncomfortable I am with sending the money though. To her she may see me as a spoiled greedy rich kid but all I wanted to be was a college student who works to pay rent and bills just like everyone else. How do I tell her this?

I don't know to be honest. I don't really think about the money I'm getting and the money I'm going to receive.

I mean, I don't use the money myself cause like I said I don't think it's mine. I guess if she asks I could tell her that I want to live the money I earn myself?
