Always dated with money. Now 36 man no money

So I’ve always had bf with money. I’m now dating a 36 year old who works in construction he doesn’t have much money to take me on dates and stuff as he pays a lot of bills and for his kids.

He started doing Amazon flex which is doing deliveries sometimes in 3 hour shift you get £45+. You can easily earn £100 a day to even £300+ a week extra cash. He has a Car so he’s able to do this.

Is this a red flag? Does this mean he can’t afford to have a family or settle down with me if he needs another extra income.

Anyways I’m able to be in the car with him and help him with sat nav and stuff while he deliveres the stuff which he’s grateful for and it’s kinda quality time.

Idk I feel like he’s 36 and should have a good paid career but clearly doesn’t. I think he was abit ashmed to do the deliveres as it must mean he’s broke but I encouraged him to.

It's really hard. Isn't?

Perhaps you should leave him if he doesn't make £300 per day

He has a good, paid career (note the comma) and a necessary one. Where would you live, work, shop and socialise without people like your boyfriend?

What do you bring to the relationship, financially? And haven't you had that talk with him? You either cut your cloth accordingly or what's wrong with you paying more if you want to settle down with him.
You sound like an absolute entitled nightmare.
why dont you get a job?

I'd not date someone with little money

If he doesn't meet your dealbreakers or you are very uncomfortable with his jobs and standard of living, it means that he is the wrong guy for you to be dating.

It would be really ironic if you didn't have a job yourself... :biggrin:
