Should I be concerned?

[gfredx 0]

This is not a bash anyone thread.. It is a genuine question if missing something in the culture. I am embarrassed to even ask this.

I give my fiancée 300 american dollars for support each month. It is never enough though. I realize 300 a month is not a great deal, but should be enough to live on or am I way off here? It is starting to really hurt our relationship at this point because within 15 days she has gone through the 300 this month, and asking for more even though have asked her to budget money since I am sadly not a rich man. Would someone please illuminate the situation? :crying: :crying:

Sorry but you have a scammer or VERY high priced pinay.

My wife made $148 US a month and supported her mom and dad and her daughter.

Have you met her?

[-B&T- 1]

Don't be scammed...open your eyes real wide. Are you supporting her on something? Is she studying? $300 is a bit too much and asking for more?

[Hunnybaby 1]

Doesn't she work? How long is the relationship? Did you offer or she asked for it?

It really depends.

Ask for the breakdown how she spends her money. You have the right to know.

It should be enough for food and everyday expenses.

But if she has to go out, shop clothes, do stuff. I guess it's pushing it.

sorry to hear about your fiancee...

is your fiancee living on her own life? like renting an apartment or house so she spend your money in her apartment bill or she is studying in college that she pay her tuition fee? if not? there's something wrong... you must be concerned that is my answer...

I have met her. We spent almost three weeks together in the Philippines. To the others in the thread she is currently not working. So I am doing full support for her.

I have asked her to breakdown expenses, and have only received guesstimates on expenses. Then when have gone into it further. She told me had paid for a birthday party and gifts also. She has no children. This is really causing pain at this point because do love her, but the lack of responsibility with money pains me. 300 dollars seems excessive in 14 days. I fear she has given her mother money to get involved in a networking scam over there. As well as giving money to everyone in the family. I really do not know for positive though, and it pains me to ponder these questions. Would just rather address this now than 6 months down the road. We are to the point that just filed for 129f.

Edit: She is paying for a boarding room. She is leaving there this month, and it is provincial, and not Manila or Cebu.

I am looking to see if my concerns are just in my head, or if there is reason to be concerned. I am not trying to bash her or anything of the sort, or grab attention. Thank you for the replies.

When I met my husband, he is giving me a $200 every month until we got married and I have my child of my own and I really budget the money he is giving it to me coz I know he works hard for it. I really don't tell to my husband if I'm already low.

Talk to your girl and tell her that you are not a rich man and you also budget your money there. If you really love her teach her how to budget and give importance in everything you work hard.

You give her 300 dollars a month and she won't tell you where it's all going? It pains me just reading your situation. Please cut your losses and run. You may love her but is the feeling really mutual? There are so many like you in the same situation there's even a web site dedicated to the subject.
