Why does he care that I need to work?

[Anonymous]

So I have military disability coming in each month along with money from school. Im not working just focusing on college. My boyfriend seems to only care that work and he feels I don't make a lot even though it's enough to pay my bills. We don't live together he stays with his dad and he feels the need to brag how much I make. I make $2400 a month, he said I should make at least 30k a year since he makes $54k. I'm like I didn't think guys cared about how much their girlfriends made. I told him I'm not working, I'm trying to get a obtain my master's and complete my degree, I'll worry about work afterwards.

Fuck him, keep doing what you're doing.
When he moves out of his parents basement, and actually pays his own way (more then just his car note, and his xbox game pass), then he can something. But by the time that happens, you'll have finished your degree, and be well employed.
I promise.

Yeah my boyfriend's logic just sounds dumb and I got into an argument about it and brought up how his ex worked and made wayyy less then me and he was with her. He just said because she worked I'm like why the fuck does it matter.

[RACSKC0B]

It doesn't matter, he's getting jabs in while he can. He knows when you're done with school, you'll make more then him, that's all.

I do not know. Is it really his Business how much money you make?

[Asker]

He told me his and he asked me so I told him.

[Guy13]

Oh, I see. You served in the military... He probably does not realize how good your benefits are. Going to have to get married for him to enjoy those ;-)

[Asker]

Ikr but he doesn't see that his priorities are fucked up
