How do you guys afford dating in SG?
For backgrounds context, 23M in uni GF is 23 F full time working.
My gf have been keep asking me to buy her expensive stuff like Dior perfumes, LV bags etc. I have entertained her whims for quite a while. I have footed almost every bill when we have a date out. She always want to eat at those cafes that cost u 80-100 bucks per meal.
Although she didn’t really demand stuff like forcing me to buy etc, she will try to guilt trip me buy sending me all those articles, insta posts, tik tok and YT vids of how other boyfriends are spoiling their gfs with luxurious gifts and how they are treating them as queens by treating them to Hai Di Lao and stuff.
I mean I bought her a Mac before and treated her mookata and other buffet too. But everytime we go out for a date, I am the only one spending for both of us.
Is this normal? She will usually say it’s a guy’s job to treat the girl and foot ll the bills but I think it’s getting out of hand.
I came from a well to do family so.i.can afford more than other people but that doesn’t mean I have spend on everything right?
What are your thoughts and to those who are in rs, how do y’all cope?
I love her and I dw to say I don’t have money or dw to spend which will make me look bad and she might leave
EDIT: I suggested splitting the bill but she said it’s a turn off for her.

- Sounds like she’s using you instead
- Depends on how hot she is, and if she is traditional, if she wants you to be traditional and pay for everything, she has to be traditional as well, stay home, cook for you, do chores etc.
- I ain’t saying she a gold digger
- Well I’ll say it then. She’s a gold digger.
