[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You've been dating for 3 years, you don't live together, and she's in grad school at the moment. Most strong couples help each other out during grad school. It sounds like she was testing you and you failed.[/quote]

Help, sure.  He pays for dates, etc.  paying off a CC seems like a whole 'nother ballpark.[/quote]

NP: I don't think he's under any obligation to give her money, but she didn't ask him to pay off a CC.  She asked him to loan her $200.

He doesn't have to do that but he also can't act shocked that someone who makes less than a third of what he makes cannot go on as many trips as he can.  She's basically on a stipend and needs all that money to cover rent and food.  Instead of understanding that she can't afford to travel he's saying she "broke up with" him because she backed out of a trip.  He sounds like he's demanding a lot from her on the time/travel front and she literally cannot afford it, and he's being dramatic about her trying to scale back.  If you have this big of an income disparity in a relationship the rule is you live to the broke one's standards or the rich one treats.[/quote]
