Then explained that her boyfriend learned about her plan and “tried to be helpful and help me create a budget”, however, the woman said that he “was exaggerating and making me feel stupid.”

“I don’t think this was his intentions, but I felt very frustrated and I told him to back, because I felt he just couldn’t understand,” she continued.

To provide “context”, the woman said that her boyfriend “earns lots of money, has a trust fund, a huge legacy that comes in a few years, and he receives from his parents a year three times the amount I try to survive over the next six months.”

“So financially we are on different planets,” she added.

“My harsh situation is that I am at the research school and get paid through grants (very small amounts). It is confusing,” she said. “He tried to help me get less stressed and had really good intentions.”

Still, the woman explained, “I felt he would not let me find out on his own even though I said over and over again I wanted to, for honestly he just made me more stressed. He has not and never made any comments about what I spend my money on.”

“He already characterizes you as a burden and a mooch. He will continue to arms his financial position over you. It will only be worse,” the user continued.

In response, the woman in the comment section told us: “I only have confusing income right now because I only make money on grants in the research school and how I pay is confusing and strange. He continued to push me to get hold of it, and he is right, I need.”
