This screams that lovely "t" word we're not allowed to use. Sounds like you have princess syndrome. Heck, even these princesses had domestic skills and didn't "expect" anything

After 6 months, this should be more of a partnership, not still the initial courtship phase. Since it's not and you don't really seem to have any desire for it to be, tell your sorry but this isn't going to work for you unless it continues as it has been.

Default Boyfriend annoyed with paying

Well now that we are a little closer, he has said that he would appreciate it if I could pick up the tab occasionally or maybe cook us dinner instead of him every now and then. I was taken aback. He knows I can't cook and I like to treated like a lady. What should I tell him? I'm traditonal in that sense.
I think he has a point. He certainly has a right to be annoyed. Why is it his responsibility to cook for you and buy you food when you don't think you should do the same. You like to be treated like a lady, how about a queen? If I were him I would drop you like a hot potato, or buy you a course that teaches cooking. A relationship with a woman like you will end in disaster, treating you like you are something special gets old, but when you demand it, it gets old even faster. You might consider yourself to be a pretty girl, but no body is that pretty!!!

If any of you are in your 20's, this ^^^^^^ is the mindset of waaaaay to many of the women in my age group.

Unreal, yes, add pathetic along with that.

For crying out loud, after reading the OP's post #10, I can't believe anyone could actually think this way. This woman is actually serious, she really does think she is something special. She thinks that thing she is sitting on is the only one in the world, she hasn't learned yet that every lady has one. Pinch me, I surely must be dreaming...

Of course not. A true Princess (the kind the Prince is seeking) trusts, hopes, handles their own end of business (independent) but doesn't EXPECT.

Oh please. He can get sex anywhere. And you need to learn some real skills.

Lots of couples have sex all the time, and please each other...did you forget that the way to a mans heart is through his stomach?

How DARE this man ask for a 50/50 partnership after establishing a relationship with you!

I haven't payed much attention to women in a few years, but if women act like this, I'm glad I haven't given most women the time of day.

That is really alarming.

When I was younger (20-25 years ago), I recall women were making sure to teach their sons how to do household chores, laundry, cooking because it was no longer women's work. How has the pendulum swung so far the other way that young women don't know how to do these things now?

How has this princess mentality been created? Too busy praising our youth for nothing, building their self-esteem for merely existing, catering to their whims, being their friend instead of their parent, rather than giving them the tools to be healthy and functioning adults?
