Girls, do you pay for the bills in your relationship?

[Amirhhzadeh]

So Where I leave, men pay for everything (because 90 percent of women are housewives) and I have always hated this. Let me know If you pay for yourself or not?
And do you think is it ok for a girl to expect his boyfriend to pay for everything?

Yes I do pay 50 percent of the money.

I do but most of the time my boyfriend does.

My boyfriend pays for everything.

Honestly I would like to say it’s 50/50 but it’s not. I’m broke half the time and he has a job and goes to college for free while I only have a summer job and go to an out of state college😪😪🤕. Come summer time when I make money, yes, I try to chip in more. When it comes to other times, I try to offer something like getting the tip bc he never has cash 😂 or getting the appetizer. A little of something is more than nothing. I feel like both people should do what they can to treat the other person every once in a while.


There is nothing wrong with wanting to be traditional tho if that is the expectation going into the relationship. However, forcing someone into a traditional relationship is wrong. (When I say “traditional” I don’t mean proper by the way, I just mean what was practiced earlier on for a long time. Nothing wrong with either way)

So actually right now I pay for myself and some for him, we've agreed that money matters will be handled 50-50 but due to current economic conditions I've been trying to do more since I can afford it more then he can at the moment. I know he'd do the same for me in a heartbeat so I'm more then okay with how things are.

😊👌

I'm a stay at home mom so yes my husband technically pays for everything even though we have a shared account

[Amirhhzadeh]

I think that's okay for housewives

[StarryNightLights]

Yes.
one date ill pay, the next is his turn. We keep it even as we can, as we both work full time and both contribute to bills.

Plus, it's my hard earned money. i enjoy spoiling him and treating him to a fancy supper and a romantic evening out. Guys don't need to cover the bill constantly, i wouldn't feel right if he did that.
he means the world to me, i want to make sure he feels special and appreciated and loved and spoiled.

i like it being equal, and I request to pay too. We're at the point after 6 years we are a TEAM and that's worked for us. We both pay

[EmmaMary]

Whilst both my husband and I have our own separate bank accounts, we do have a joint one that we contribute equal and evenly to that takes care of all our household expenses.

[Amirhhzadeh]

Great!

[Prettygurl12]

For the last decade of my relationship I've paid for 100% of everything lol

My husband just got his first job a week ago and now he gets to make the money. Up until now I've worked and provided for us. I just got a conditional job offer so I will also get to contribute to our finances but now I am not the sole provider.

[Amirhhzadeh]

Well good for your husband. and your such a great wife😊

[Mil00]

Everyone has their own dynamic that works for them. Me personally, my partner pays for our bills, I pay for our food/home necessities. Sometimes he pays for all of it, because he wants to be the provider. Nothing wrong with that. Then I end up spoiling him because he's amazing

[AudreyV92]

Usually when I go on a date in my personal life I will pay for everything, I feel uncomfortable having someone else pay for things (some people are OK with this and some people try to say they should pay, usually guys have a problem with it more than girls) 🤷‍♀️

[Little_Bumblebee]

I usually pay for myself in a relationship.

I don't understand people who expect to be paid for.
If you are a house spouse it does make sense as they don't really earn any money they can spend

[Midnight_Kiss]

I'm single but when I was in a relationship and if I go on a date I pay my own way, I hate the idea of being a kept woman, I don't see why men should pay for you effectively just because you are or may sleep with them

[kc_4308]

I don’t have a boyfriend so I pay for myself when I dine out

[Mia-Wallace]

I own our house and pay some of its bills. We don't care who pays the bills, we simply do, rather randomly.

[FitCarmen]

He makes more money and he likes me to have free time for the gym and myself

[Amirhhzadeh]

I want a spouse like yours😭😂

[Apulu_02]

I haven't went on a date yet but I will like to pay the money I spent. What would be the use of my hard earned money if I don't use it?

[pink_and_inlove]

I’d say that I’ve paid a more than 50 percent but he has paid as well

[DizzyDesii]

I prefer we both pay our own bills. The only bill that should be shared/split is rent or dinner

[bambi_01]

Yes I do. We usually go take turns on who pays. If I pay one day then he will pay the next time we go out

[Dorothy83]

Me and my partner go back and fourth. I have no problem paying.

[Tiptoetamm]

I have before and still again

[VTecumseh]

Don't worry about it. He gets his moneys worth.

[Amirhhzadeh]

What do u mean?

[VTecumseh]

Don't worry about it.
