Whenever we have been together he tries to pay for EVERYTHING and i finally said, "Look, i feel bad let me at least pay for the tickets, dinner, etc."

But my question is...the amount of time that we last together...is he going to continue to keep paying for everything...(movie tickets, food, etc.)

I mean he is only 15....he doesn't really have a job...and I feel like I'm taking money away from his parents....man.

We are seeing a movie soon and I am going to try to pay...or should I just let him pay?

always try to pay, at least.

Instead of asking to pay for both, why not just say you'll pay for yourself?

He's being nice, but if it's making you feel awkward, just offer to go dutch.

Why does one person need to pay the lump sum? Just pay individually if you feel bad about taking his money and he feels like he needs to pay for something.

A relationship is a partnership.
Work together.

Go dutch? I like your answers but what does that mean?

it just means splitting the cost, so each paying half at a restaurant or paying for your own ticket and for half of the popcorn at the cinema.

If you told him you are going to pay, then fucking pay!

You two are only so young, so nobody really cares.
