To expect to know my boyfriends salary when buying a house?

My boyfriend and I currently don't live together and this evening we were looking at properties to buy together, I was sending him links to various houses, despite asking for an approximate budget I was just getting "its too expensive", "I wont get a mortgage for £x amount", on a huge variation of prices which tbh just looked like he wasn't interested in any and just couldn't be bothered, anyway to stop wasting time I asked him what his salary was in order to get a rough estimation of how much of a mortgage we'd be able to get together. At this point he made a huge issue, apparently it wasn't relevant, I didn't need to know, and basically making out as if I was being a dick for asking something completely off topic. As an aside, he knows my salary.
AIBU?

Well done OP Flowers. What a swine to make up all those excuses about being worried about you.

Lesson learnt - onwards and upwards!!

PyongyangKipperbang She must have had some idea he had a girlfriend as a few guys at work knew, though I never asked, and despite him still messaging me months later I haven't spoken to him since the day I found out.
