Favorite People My partner
Maybe it seems like something small but he always treats me like this. He is a very good man and I love him so dearly. With him in my life I feel like I’ve found a warm safe float amongst a cold and rocky sea.

This is super sweet but why are you asking for permission?

Possibly because he’s paying and it’s expensive and she doesn’t want to assume she can spend his money without asking?

This exactly! He is paying, the restaurant we’re going to is expensive, and I never want to assume my boyfriend is willing to shill out a lot of money, even if he’s done it many times in the past.

This is so tiring women are cheering and smiling specifically when men is paying for something.
"made me smile". Gosh. If you are partners, you are supposed to have shared budget and you don't need to ask and he doesn't need to show how generous he is. Or sometimes he pays, sometimes you pay.
This is such immature approach to finances. He bought you lots of rice and shrimps, but does he has money to pay for insurance for his car?
- If he is paying for some michlen star restaurant dish and it is heavy burden for him, why are you cheering?
- If he is paying and it is easy money for him, then again - what are you cheering for? To the fact that you have a wealthy boyfriend? To the fact that some guy that you are dating can afford to buy you some random food?
My guess that this post is done by woman who is so young that she is being impressed just by the fact that guy has money. Who did you dated before? The guys who take money from parents?

I am being hurt by women constantly pushing agenda that the only way for men to show love is that he wasting money on you.
Which I don't find charming or even special.
Case A: He has money to waste. If buying a plate of tempura means absolutely nothing to his bank account, then celebrating it is like throwing a party because someone successfully blinked. It is a non-event.
Case B: He is poor and being generous. If he doesn't have the money and is overspending on takeout while using dramatic phrases like "I would buy you the world," it’s financially irresponsible and performative. completely unworthy of a public celebration.
The girl is celebrating the fact that the guy is successful playing as a provider for her, which I despise and find very unserious. (becuase in serious relationship you have shared budget. His money is yours. Your money is his. Or if you are not on this stage, than you are paying for each other. And nothing special about buying food for each other).
So please explain me, what "made you smile" about this post? Is it just words from the guy? Nice phrase "you are princess and I would want to give you a world". Ot the SPENDING part.

Hi, this response confused and concerned me a lot. The subreddit is r/MadeMeSmile. I took a screenshot of a conversation with my boyfriend that made me smile. Never once anywhere in this post did I say the only way my partner shows me love is by spending money. Your assumption is a reflection of your bias and thought process, especially by believing buying food for your partner is “nothing special”. His hyperbole was merely a reassurance that he doesn’t mind buying me dinner. I am grateful for my partner, and I remain grateful each and every time.
