[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you thought he was trying to save some money to get an engagement ring or put a down-payment on a house for you, would you agree?

You don't know why he's balking at the expense, but he is.  If you don't want to pay more, why don't you suggest more dates in and cut the total spending per month.  We didn't spend $800 a month when we were dating.  And even though that was some time ago, I do know friends now who date and don't spend that much.  Suggest finding some free alternatives instead of always going out and spending money and see if that is a compromise that he can agree to. [/quote]

Did you actually read OP's post? This isn't OP's boyfriend saying he needs to cut back expenses and OP getting pissed that they're not going out to high-end restaurants every week. OP wants to be able to cook his favorite meals for dates, he tells her he doesn't want her to cook and wants to go out. She offered to get a second job to help pay for dates out, he told her he doesn't want her to do that either. Boyfriend seems to want to keep up the nice lifestyle while having OP fund it with money she doesn't have.[/quote]
