Early stage of relationship with new guy and we don't live together so anytime we see each other is when we go on dates.
Someone which are full days meaning breakfast, lunch, dinner, tickets to do things and anything else between.
We roughly take it in turns each time.
But I've noticed myself automatically paying or offering to pay multiple times in a row and I'm wondering if it's something in my subconscious.
He will pick up the bill too and I'm sure it evens out fairly but I just wonder if there is a formula that means no resentment.
I'm starting to question my sanity a bit when I wonder if things are fair and if they should be when earnings are different or f I'm just overthinking and should stop worrying.
Previously I was in a financially controlling marriage so haven't had proper access to my money up until leaving exh 6 months ago.
New guy is very nice and often offers to treat me to something I like when out shopping, but I get all bashful and don't feel I deserve it and so tell him not to, but sometimes I just think I'm being silly and let hi do it, but then I think if he really wanted to he would?
