Boyfriend not helping me financially
I'm kind of in a rut right now. I'm going through some financial hardships and my boyfriend hasn't been wanting to help me even though he has very few financial responsibilities. It's stressful to me and strange because I was raised where a man should WANT to take care of his woman. I'm 22 and my boyfriend is 19 almost 20. One problem I have is I need to get my car windows fixed. I was downtown trying to take my guitar to get repaired and had trouble finding parking. I just parked somewhere and walked to the place to get my guitar repaired and when I came back, firefighters had busted through my car window because I parked in front of a fire hydrant and put the hose through my window. Then I got a 120 dollar ticket for parking in front of a fire hydrant. And because my windows were busted for parking in front of a fire hydrant insurance won't cover it. So I have busted windows with a ticket. I told my boyfriend and he was just telling me that sucks and how it happened to an old foster parent once. He didn't jump to help me. So finally I said "Are you not wanting to help me with this at all?" And he goes "Why would I pay for your ticket? Don't park in front of a fire hydrant." He said he is in school and he can't afford to help me. But here's the thing. He gets a tuition waiver for being a foster child so he doesn't have to pay for his tuition. He also gets Medicaid until he's 26 for being in foster care while I'm getting 300 dollars taken out of my check for insurance. He works part time at a hotel and lives with former foster parents and as far as I know they don't charge him rent. They just ask that he pays his own phone bill and help out when he can as long as it doesn't break him. Besides that he just has his car note and insurance. He literally gets everything handed to him while I work close to 50 hours a week. I would think he would man up and see his woman struggling and want to help me. I know he doesn't make a lot and only works part time with with his lack of financial responsibility and free hand outs you would think he would help. My dad always made sure my mom and then my step mom were financially taken care e of. It's a turn off that I even had to ask because I feel like a real man would jump to it.
