Uhm.... What? Need some advice.

Sounds to me like he wants to play role reversal. He wants to be coddled and spoiled. Not the typical behavior of a man if you ask me. Compromise is one thing but it is a sign of a user. In all honesty, it is something that should be confronted with if you haven't done so.

I agree with Beast. If you can't talk about something like that with him, then it's probably not gonna work out. Do take the time to figure it out the whole situation though, too many relationships that can fly drop off because of brash decisions. It seems, however, that you're being used though. Men take care of their women. We have too much pride to ask for help a lot of the times. Someone who decides to use their woman to provide for them has no pride as a man and is the lowest grade of person you can find.

See, I /have/ confronted him, and what happens is that he says "I don't have any money right now, but when I do I'll spoil you!" A.) I don't really like being spoiled unless I'm doing it myself. LOL B.) I don't know why I have to wait for you to spoil me, even thoughI'm not really into it. It's been the same thing lately though, "My brakes are locked up." Last time I checked, brakes save your life, so why wait three to four weeks to replace them? OH, and then because I commission things, he feels that it's alright to ask me for the cost and then complain about it. Commissions can be expensive depending on what you want, I give discounts, I don't really give handouts. I'm just glad I haven't gotten too attached, it takes me a long while for that to happen.

In addition to what I have already said Crobi, this scumbag clearly has no respect for you. I think I let my ex pay for coffee once, and I could not talk her out of it. In my own personal opinion, I believe that it is the mans responsibility to treat their woman at all times. This trash that your dating is not a man, but a boy.

That's seriously messed up. I pay for the majority of the things in my relationship, but I always get paid back asap. He doesn't like me paying for things, but he lives with some irresponsible roommates and literally lives paycheck to paycheck (which I find more understandable than your situation). Your boyfriend wants a sugar mama, and I strongly urge you to dump his ass. You'd be surprised how fast his brakes will get fixed after that.

"I don't have any money right now, but when I do I'll spoil you!" This is false hope. What he is basically exploiting is a basic conditioning tactic. He is keeping your attention with a carrot on a stick. Once you start to figure it out and move on, he will give you that carrot and you're the one who will be thinking "oh maybe he's not so bad afterall" and end up sticking around. This cycle will continue until you're conditioned to do whatever he requests for. Most abusive relationships end up this way when there's no middle-ground. Take it from a guy who knows all sorts of people. Actions speak louder than words. Cut off all ties NOW. You deserve better.
