I met my boyfriend a few years ago and it was a whirl wind romance. We did the cross country long distance relationship for a little bit. While visiting him he would treat me to shopping sprees, expensive dinners, and opera shows....then one day he asked me to move out to NY (from cali) and that he wanted to take care of me. He said he wanted me to finish my education, not work, and just be his princess. I knew he had a good job and earned great money but also knew he wasn't rich. So I left a lot behind and made the move. We lived in sh*tty apartment and drove a sh-tty car for 2 years, and I put up with some major changes that we're very hard to adapt to. My BF is amazing and very motivated, he earns over 200k a year which sadly costs him a lot in taxes. Aside from that he has sick parents (one can't help her disease and the other is just a lazy obese cry baby) whom he helps out financially. Then he has our expenses which aren't too great.. I have kept up my part by going to school full time and getting great grades, playing wife (a damn good one too), and trying to adjust living on an allowance. I got a night job a few months ago to make a little spending money and I turned out to be a good waitress and made some good money. While working I paid all my own bills and took a lil vacation. Unfortunately I was earning too much to qualify for my free healthcare and financial aid for school that my help was threatened to be suspended if I continued earning that amount. I had no choice but to quit. Well my BF liked it when I was paying my lil bills that now he sends me classified ads for nanny jobs and dog walking jobs that pay cash and I refuse to work those types of jobs. I had my own business in california and don't feel comfortable being responsible for someone's kid or cleaning up dog poop No thanks. So he got mad at me when I decided to take a few modeling jobs for some cash to pay for a trip with my best friend. He says I'm being selfish and I never think about working for us....now I'm stressed and feel so guilty...should I go back to my old line of work (banking + real estate) and put school on the back burner for a little while to help him or should I stay firm and tell him that he should've never made promises of keeping me like a princess if he couldn't keep them and continue going to school and living on my measly allowance....and being the friend with the great boyfriend who makes more money than all their husbands but can't seem to afford a 1,000 trip.
