Is asking my girlfriend for money bad?

Posted at: 2015-05-24 
Well I'm 20, my lady is 18, we both have jobs and I decided to give my mom all my savings to help pay for the rent (which this is the first time it happened only cuz she was sick) and I had an idea to go to a Knicks game with her. Tickets are $96 each and I asked her if she can pay her ticket and I just pay for mine, food, and transportation. I feel guilty for making her pay because it was my idea. She said "whatever you need I'm always willing to help". Is this wrong? Or am I just overthinking it

No, it is not wrong to split the cost of a special outing with the person you are dating, as long as you both want to do it.

And I may add that we've been together for a year and a half now. She doesn't pay bills cuz both her parents don't ask (yet) her to. I don't always do this I just don't want to cancel plans last minute and she's excited to watch the game with me.

If you're scrambling to pay for the rent, you shouldn't be going to $100 basketball games. Be smart here - if you have limited money, prioritize. The Knicks will still be around in the future. And odds are they'll be better, because they totally suck this year. $192 is higher than their winning percentage for god's sake. Save your money.

Are you kidding me? $200 to go to a basketball game when you barely have enough money for living expenses (rent, food, utilities)? Watch the game on TV (if you have one). And I sure hope you're not paying $60 a month for cable TV. If so, get rid of the cable TV and install an antenna on your roof!

Maybe nix the game altogether that's a lot of money you clearly don't have and your gf probably has bills too. It just breeds bad habits because you'll start getting comfort asking your gf to pay. She'll slowly start resenting you. Men should always pay.

You're wrong for blowing money on tickets at all.

don;t be spending huge amounts of money on a basketball game when you're broke
