I have a boyfriend, we have been together a year now, and I love him very much, but there is just something I am not sure about, this is a problem, let me explain, Everytime that I have money, I like to buy myself something nice, but when he knows this he asks for something too, he will pick something like a child in a candy store, I tell him I was going to buy me something with it, he says"It is only $50, besides I gave you money last time to spend, and I'm taking you to dinner. But for some reason I always have to give money. I hate this, what can I do??? Any help will be appreciated.

Dear A little Scared, Unknown, This man really seems inmature. He is extremely jealous because you have this money to spend on yourself, but if he wants things for himself he needs to get ajob or get one that pays more money so he can have extra money on himself. If he refuses to do this you may end up with a more serious problem such as him being possessive over you and your money which can lead to abuse. Tell him that you will not support a bum and that he should be the one buying things for you!!!!!
