I'm having issues with my boyfriend due to his financial situations. I'm upset because he takes his frustrations out on me and makes it seem like I don't care for him. I do believe in a man being able to provide for his woman and make her happy, but he's not able to do certain things that most couple do on dates. Since I'm financially independent than he is, he now wants me to pay for all the dates or take "him" out to dinner. I have done little things he needed me to do for him, but he always sees past that and still doesn't show any appreciation or gratitude. He feels it's not enough.
Also, he gets offended every time me or someone else gives him advice on his financial stability. He also tells me how I should spend my money and that I don't do enough for him. The major issue about dates is that I'm the only one with a car and is paying gas the majority of the time. When we do go out, I have to do all the driving. I believe in a man taking me out every once in a while and also having his own vehicle. In my opinion, he's at the age (36yrs) where he should be financially stable and should get himself together. However, he says that he's not trying to take advantage of me because of my ex boyfriend. but I see otherwise. Even though he's trying to attend college, there's other issues that shows him as a "loser" to others. I'm not shallow or a gold digger type of woman, but I don't want to feel that I'm taking care f him. So what do you guys think?
