[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am shocked about the answers here. I would break up with you in a second if after 3 years of a relationship I could not borrow $200 from you. She DOES have many other options. What kind of partner are you? After 3 years? Unbelievable...

Unless of course she was going to spend those $200 in a new Gucci bag, then I would break up with her because she is irresponsible. 
After 3 years she is clearly not with you for the money (especially if all you make is 90k). Poor woman! She makes 24k in gradschooland you make her pay for half of your vacations? 
If my husband did something like this when we were dating I would have dumped him in a sec (and no, I definitely did not pick him for him money).
Also, asking someone for money is really difficult. You embarrassed her. I am sooo glad I am not her and my DH is not you

Okay but you didn't ask him for money.  Wtf?  How does your anecdote compare?[/quote]

First of all when I met him I had a job. After about a year I went back to school for my PhD and was making 20k. I owned my apartment and he moved in with me and paid for everything (from condo fees to groceries to trips). That to me is a relationship... you don’t share and count. Each one brings what he/she can. It does NOT need to be even. I never counted how much he was spending vs how much he was saving (from not paying rent). I am sure he spent more than what he saved, but that’a Ok because he made 7 times more than I did... that is fair. Unless you think she is a bimbo and is with you just for the money, but i highly doubt that’s the case... why are you (and the rest of DCUM) so weird about money! What happened to partnership and generosity? Why is it so difficult for you to be there with her and help her? What are you afraid that she will never get a job and will be a SAHM? As I said, I would break up with you in a second[/quote]
