So recently, my gf of two years had a swollen eye and needed to go to the doctor. My gf doesn’t have insurance and her charge was $125. She asked her parents for the money and they gave it to her. She currently lives with her father and he’s only home once a week. I would go by to visit my gf, but today I have been told that I cannot visit anymore until I find a steady source of income. I am a full time college student pursuing nursing, and I haven’t worked since I was 16. My gf told me that her parents feel that since she’s in a relationship, that person should be who she asks for money from and not them. I could have helped her pay the bill, but I feel that her parents’ logic is skewed. I still live with my mother and I have applied to CNA training that begins in mid to late May. After telling my gf this, she proceeded to say she doesn’t know where our relationship will be if I don’t acquire steady income. I told her the next time I would contact her was when I acquire said income. Should I be providing for a 19 year old girl whilst being one year out of high school? Isn’t that moving too fast? Was I right for practically putting our relationship on hold? Are her parents in the right for putting such expectations on me without understanding the workload I endure on a weekly basis in college?
