Hell I improved the lives of the guys I was with. Get outta here one ex didn’t even have a savings account b4 dealing with me:rudy:
He was eating out all the time and when we got together I was cooking. He saved money paying groceries for both of us more than him eating out everyday when he was single.

We both saved money living together. I saved b/c he got a discount as he was an executive working for the leasing company that managed our apartments.
So our rent was heavily discounted. I paid lights and cable/internet, he paid rent and groceries and household stuff.
Hell he even offered to pay more after the first few weeks living together b/c he saw I was doing everything.

I’ve never been a financial burden to anyone.

Hell ya! I saved a helluva lot of bread. :pachaha:A lot of men today love to cook. I had one boyfriend feed me 1/3 of my meals for a whole year. But that was our agreement. He'd cook and I'd drive to see him. Win/win.
At least we get one honest answer:ehh:

Not a shot at anyone.

So it is his idea to do these things?

So basically he made both of yall spend more money???

He was the driving factor?

If he did none of that stuff and yall just chilled at home (like you normally do), would you find him..... boring :sas2:
You seem like you fishing for something :sas1:. But to answer your question , nope. I’m blessed to have found someone who matches me. We are both people who can be happy in the house or going out. We entertain one another by telling jokes and stories. At the end of the day we only need each other. If that feeling changes we would communicate and tell one another.

they want to hear from u

I spend more in relationships. I always bought stuff for bfs. If I was out and saw something they liked or needed would get it. Typically took turns treating each other when we went out. Spent more money on products/clothes to look nice for them too. Wasn’t a big deal to me.

So basically relationships make both parties spend more than either would alone

:ohhh:

It's about the quality of the people involved I'd say, more so than just the relationship alone.
If she's quality, she'll want to be right there with him, covering him as he covers her.
If he's quality, it's the same.
Rather than just being there as a money sink on her couch/bed.

Yes, it did. My love language is giving gifts so I would always try and get him something nice or bring him lunch.
