Ok. My wife makes about twice as much as I do, I make a solid living, but she’s just on a little different level. Granted we are married, but she’s never made me feel like I was inadequate in anyway for the money I make comparatively. We go on dates, sometimes I pay, sometimes she does. It’s never made into, “I make x money let me get it.”

It was a bit weird at first being the male and not being the big money earner, but I’m proud of my wife for what she’s accomplished and talk her and her job up often.

In the end what it is, is I make a pretty good living and she’s just in a different league. Your girlfriend isn’t broke and by the money you said she makes, she makes a decent living, it’s clearly different than you, but she’s doing just fine. Let her pay for things, and don’t give her the, “it’s fine I make 300k a year” that’s just annoying. She will pay when she’s able and let her, she’s doing it for you, don’t make her feel inadequate.

300 may be quite a bit for her, but with the other things in your relationship it may have felt like a pity thing, or a let me take care of you type of deal.

Let her pay for things when she can, and don’t give her the i make so much more than you. She makes an adequate living. I understand where you are coming from, but I’m in her shoes and it’s truly great my wife treats me the way she does in this sense.
