My girlfriend always wants to spend all my salary and savings💥

There I was, slumped on our battered couch in our shoebox-sized apartment, watching my girlfriend scroll endlessly on her phone. Out of nowhere, she looks up and says, "Let’s just put all our money together." Easy for her to say—my paycheck is seven times hers! Suddenly, I’m not her boyfriend, I’m her personal bank. She spends like she’s allergic to savings, while I’m counting every penny because I know what it’s like to have nothing. Every talk about money turns into a fight, and when she demanded half my income as if it was her birthright, I nearly lost it. Am I crazy for wanting my hard work to mean something? Or am I just being a jerk? Would you just hand over your wallet in the name of love? I need some real talk here, because right now, I feel like I’m dating a financial hurricane. 😤💸 #RelationshipDrama #MoneyTalks #CoupleConflicts #ModernLove #RomanticRelationships
