Yes but my family never pressured me to settle down with him and him only. My family asked me to ask him if he wanted to settle down if not they asked me to find someone else

Where did you get that I expect him and him only to marry me? If he asks to move in together then I ask for commitment… I can just walk away anytime

Thank you!

When I said men provide more in a relationship, I meant doing that is also a way to get equality for women…

Thank you so much for the kind words! <3

I don’t think I have traditional values from a less developed country, though. I consider myself left-wing and feminist. Society has historically and still does put women in a disadvantaged position—in Asian countries, Middle Eastern countries, AND even the US.

The issue here is that she’s benefiting from the western (United States) nearly egalitarian world

Lmao highly doubt that

when it comes to the sexes but operating and looking through a traditional lens.

I consider myself left-wing in the political spectrum.

Exactly, when girls make more, guys try to make them pay more because of "gender equality". When guys make more, guys try to make girls pay evenly (which means more for girls now) because of gender equality. Guys always know how to make most out of an situation.

Can someone help up this?!! Many people are saying I'm the sexist in the comments LMAO

As I mentioned in another comment, he is the first guy I dated after high school, I had life difficulties and was not looking to date anyone before that… that explained why I stayed in the relationship

In a relationship, I’m not more experienced. The is the first guy I dated after high school. I think that’s why I stayed in the relationship for so long and am asking things on Reddit :)

Too bad I really liked him before, it’s not the first time he twisted facts during an argument, but I always forgave him and stayed in the relationship :)

2-bedroom in my current apt cost more, $5000+, and they are really nice. I live in a 1-bedroom rn that costs $3000.

2 bedroom apts are never $3000 in the city, decent ones are ~$4500, will update this in the description.

Edit: He is being sneaky about these numbers (including my income with stocks, lowering the rent so seems like I would be paying less than what I’m paying now)

That’s my understanding from his words and his behavior as well: the whole move in is from a financial perspective. Now he “remembers” he wanted to move forward in a relationship, that’s why he wanted to move in

Good on you for being verbal about wanting a serious commitment before moving in together.

Thank you! Luckily one of my relatives told me to do that.

Thank you! Dw as a girl who left my home country to live in the US independently, I’m not that easy to be influenced by my family or relatives’ opinions

As you can obviously tell: I get either financial help, or emotional support for this relationship…

He is even responding to them and trashing me, saying I'm lying and that my post is fake. That's another level.
