I don't know of the other side of the World, but in this side of the World, men are responsible for every financial responses in both marriage and the boy/girlfriends relationships.
The demands of financial expenses is being too much at the men sides.
Here, my friends girlfriend who is a university scholar that faces financial challenges is keeping my friend worried,
On the 14th Februarys which marks the "Valentines day"(lovers day) as it may imply, it is usually a special day here in this side of the World where couples and those in intimate relationships or even relatives do have it a remarkable day to spend together. It was likely a tradition that they must gift each other with what is affordable but gifted on a special offer.
The guys (men) are most expected to play this gifting role but here at this edge, my guy thought of having his girlfriend the sum of $50 cash believing she has more of financial issues to tackle than acquiring materialistic items (gifts). This is so she can utilize the money and add up to her educational fees or otherwise.
Now, she said the guy is not being caring and romantic simply because other persons to her notice are being gifted of materialistic items instead of money. She expected me to purchase her items with the gifted money.
This is just how awkward and lack of financial sensibilities some women could be who just sits, makes demands and gets what they wanted without having the compassions of how hard it is to make the money's they spends so carelessly.
Initially, it's not all women that has this thought towards men going out in search of money while there's is to sit back and think only about how they are going to be spending it. While most women are supportive some are not, but lately a good number of them are blood sucking leaches, they will have to make sure you spend your very last on them for items or things not necessarily needed though they can be needed but not on that exact time, just to impress friends or maintain same status as their friends, then when things don't go their way it would lead to a fight.
Left For me I will like every man to help get their idle fiance, girlfriend or wife a good job, business or skill, so as to help relieve the burden from themselves, by doing so they'll be able to pay bills themselves when need arises, I guess by so doing there won't be any worries or much of demands from the woman anymore.
As a man if you are the only one providing you will end up having issues and worry over something you are not supposed to be thinking over, i will say one of the reasons why most men end up overthinking is simply because they do carry unwanted load on them even when they feels like "I have much money" you'll still see them complain. In my own opinion, I think women should able to take care of some needs themselves and also assist their spouse sometimes too.
