Guys, Should I let me boyfriend pay for vacation?

[Anonymous]

Hi, I'm a 27 year old female and still live with my strict parents I'm low on money at the moment and my boyfriend wants to go on vacation, I spent most of my money on studying and I haven't worked in a while I couldn't find a job until now, I'm currently working but making low money and trying to save as much as possible. My boyfriend (28) wants to pay for the trip but my parents are against it they said I should pay for my own plane ticket and I agree, but my boyfriend never let's me pay for anything (he makes more money) my question is should I let him pay or is that not fair? I'm asking for a male opinion please.

If I were him, I would do the same. He wants to take this trip with you, you are still in school, he's working and can afford it. Go and enjoy the trip.

You can compensate when you make more money... it's not nice to let you pay when you are low on money

You are an adult and capable of making your own decisions. I am not sure how serious the relationship is but that should be one of the factors you need to consider but if he offers to pay for your trip and can afford it I don't see the problem. He probably thinks the trip would not be as much fun if he went by himself.

Just let him, jeez. A relationship need not be tit for tat. Obviously, a relationship is transactional, but need not to be completely nickeled and dimed. Just go and have a good time. He's obviously interested.
