Just like any other couple out there. We are both contributing to all of the expenses, no mom or dad is helping us.

Again, what do you bring to the table other than company and sex while having a man pay for all your expenses and give you money? Come on, your turn to answer questions.

as mentioned previously, she is staying with the guy rent free!!..lets also keep in mind that they are not married so, essentially she is owed nothing, entitled to nothing, money is not combined, she has her money, he has his money, if he chooses to not spend it on her, that's his prerogative, its also her prerogative whether she stays with him because of he won't....not that complicated really

My premise is that the guy is a loser, an a-h, and a cheapskate, and he amply proved that. Who would want to be with that?

She kicked his @** to the curb. With his cheap ways, it's unlikely he'll find someone.
why is it unlikely he will find someone, when he makes over 200k a year?
why is he a cheapskate when he pays for her rent and her entire salary goes only to food..what does the rest of it go to?..herself probably
why do you think that in a non-marriage that just because the man makes 6 times more he should pay for everything including her rent? If this was a marriage I would agree with you...but it ain't...so i cain't

this is all besides the point though as the relationship is toxic at best and probably needs to end for many reasons

I would NEVER move in with a man. I support myself. I don't ask men for money. So...forget that whole thread right there.

But...if I did...(not that I would)....I would pay my share...I am not dependent, I can buy my own food, and pay for my own vacations...I am not a "Blank"...I will let you fill in the blank.

Cool.

Thing is that I can hear many women say that they can take care of themselves and what not and later see them in a relationships like the one on this thread and when asked what happened they will go "Well, he's a gentleman, a real man, therefore I let him take care of me". You don't seem to be that way, right?

make no mistake the OP is a dependant..if the relationship ends she is on her own just like JJ said, not quite sure how the guy is cheap..would love Saritaschihuahua to explain it...but something tells me she has been in the OP's shoes which is why she is so desperate to fight the point of him being cheap

Yes she is. I mean, she has a job and all. You know what, I have wondered about that too. Maybe Saritaschihuahua can identify herself in this situation, who knows. She has said that a real man is that one who takes care of all expenses, pays, and so on. She keeps digging and digging to find a good reason to call this guy cheap after every thing he has done for her.

Still waiting for her answer though. She has talked about what makes a man a real man and so on. But she hasn't answered my question hhhhmmm.

Very cool. Good for you guys. I'm sure you'll have a lovely wedding. Speaking of travel, I'm taking my husband to France and Switzerland this fall (my co is taking me). Perks for him!

I would bet these women are the exception and not the norm.

That's cool. Not been to Switzerland but I have been to France. Awesome place. My friend (not girlfriend or wife) took me to France on vacation. I took her to Morocco.

I personally don't need to, but what if I were poor and fell in love with someone with money? What's he going to do? Count every F penny? Make damned sure that I pay 50%? Why would anyone want someone whose sentiments so sick?
