So been dating this woman for like 6 months now, nothing official or exclusive due to her time commitments to medical school.

So over these 6 months Ive spent Maybe 2 grand on her, between flowers making sure shes straight money wise, picking up things I think shed like, her nails etc etc.

Its a big discrepancy earnings wise due to her schooling so Its not reciprocated financially but I never doubt that shed be returning the favor if she could.

So recently when discussing an issue about her time management, she expresses that one of the reasons its so bad is because she goes out of her way to try and spend time with my out of a feeling of obligation to me and all I do, and that isnt working for her we should take a step back.

im honestly kinda crushed cause we kinda got into this situation knowing time spent would be sparse at first and I never asked her to do all the things she feels obligated to do for me.

No she never really asked me for anything. The one time she did she was damn near crying over 20 dollars.

i dont question her character.

If the issue was truly about you spending money on her she would do her best to pay her share and not rely on you for money... she wouldnt take the money and then call it off cause she took money.

Like think about it. That makes no sense.

I sympathize with her. But that's specifically why I reject gifts being too one sided. I don't want to feel obligated to people over money. Did she express this before now and you just didn't think it was as big of a deal to her as it was?

2 grand over 6 months is a ton of money to spend on someone you're only casually dating

That's not relevant to my point.

If its guilt she'd make an effort to not rely on him for money moving forward and stay with him. Not "oh I feel bad about that so we should take a break.

Immediately going, "we should take a step back" as opposed to talking to TC about it and making an effort to level things out financially strongly indicates that she's not that into the relationship.

i knew she hated not being able to reciprocate, but I didnt know that was turning into a sense of obligation.

it really wasnt even lopsided to me, she does so much for me emotionally and mentally, that I dont think she values the way I do.

I mean we work great honestly, I kinda feel like schools getting to her. She wanted to break things off cause she felt she wasnt pulling her weight, but like she considered pulling her weight things I never asked her to do

to clarify on this, based on the conversation we had she feels like I need time and communication she cant provide and thats why she wants to take a break.

But we only argue about time and communications because shes been trying to make time she doesnt have and its been back firing

If it was me, it would be easy to remedy tho. Just start doing stuff where money isn't the issue when hanging out. Simple things. If she's genuine, then she should have no problem with you adjusting to make her feel more comfortable about the situation. If she doesn't, she might of just realized you guys don't fit as good as she originally thought. Which doesn't necessarily mean anything is wrong with either of you

most the time we hang out we arent doing expensive shit. She never really minds what we do.

she said shes always been the one buying her partner stuff and how its weird to be on the other side.

Why even respond to them? It's obvious they're jaded when they just need minimal information to judge the women harshly. No matter how you frame it, they'll blackout and see golddigging lol.

I'm not saying that's off the table myself. But how fast they jump to it is the tell. Tbh, there's still not enough insight for me to lean either way yet.

Uh, dude just admitted to spending over $150 on average, every visit for 6 months. GF says she feels bad about him spending money on her like that. She doesnt try to make the relationship work in a way where he doesnt need to, but instead wants to take a large step back. She either found someone else, or just doesnt want to spend the time with him, regardless of money spent on her. If someone wants to spend time with you, they will find a way. Her actions are 100% those of someone who knows they have been using someone and now feel bad about it.

I've been there before.

She probably never actually enjoyed having the money spent on her but liked the commodity, or did enjoy it but eventually felt guilty

Or it's just an excuse. Does sound like a problem though.

ive already said she has only asked for 20 dollars and has regularly expressed she not used to anyone looking out for her that way.

So do exactly as she says. She wants a slow down, give it to her. Let her come to you and hit you up to set up plans. Slow it down and keep yourself extra extra casual. Go Dutch

im 100% fine with that I just dont want her to feel like thats what it should be because shes think shes fucking up or something.

You didnt really do anything wrong man, dont be too defensive

Ignoring the money, if someone says they are too busy with school to spend time I wouldnt give that person much attention, if people want to be with someone they wouldnt let college get in the way, so ignoring the money aspect which is what it is, your priorities were too different

And yet you still, on average, spent over $150 per time you saw her. I mean, unless you were lying about either the amount of time you spent with her, or the amount of money you spent.

I mean thats the thing, she wasnt too busy for me, she thought she was too busy for me. I wouldnt of let it go on if that was the case.

Fine, I dont understand what you want out of this discussion really.

Any time you mention relationship stuff to people they are going to try to give advice or whatever

Just think about it on your own I guess? Dont let it get you down? That seems to be all I can say

Could be she just wants an out and this is an easy and convenient excuse. If she wants out, she wants out. Time to read the room as best you can and if this is true, then the whole truth about feelings of obligation may come from you and if it does, its a good learning experience. Lots of ifs. Good luck.

I mean all thats possible, and if it was anyone else I wouldnt of let it get this far in the first place. But I just dont see it based on her character, shed be a totally different person in my eyes if this was the case.

i really think its the her trying to hard thing and demanding more of her self than Im asking.

It just lines up with her actions even this week. She had two hours between getting her hair done and taking an exam. and she asked if we could do something

Like I knew that made nosense and the second anything bad happens she wasnt gonna make it.

You may wanna slow down or just stop spending money on her. While it's nice to do, it sounds like its ruining your relationship. Whether or not you tell her that she doesn't need to pay you back, if she's a good person she will try to anyways. It makes things unbalanced and she will always feel guilty about it, which isn't good. The money may be doing more harm than good here sadly
