another boyfriend questionn okay so we're in love blahblah but the thing is, he's 17 and doesn't drive and he expects me to always give him rides. i honestly don't mind doing it as long as ive got nowhere to be and he gives me gas money once in awhile. he says he'll give me gas money but we both always forget until i drop him off and then i'm like "oh i forgot to get his gas money" but the thing is, if i remind him, i feel bad asking him...he works alot and has money but i still feel bad i guess =/ what should i doo?

I think it's only fair that he gives you gas money, because he doesn't have his license and it's not right for you to drive him everywhere, and he just doesn't do anything to thank you. It's really rude.

I might be a bit old-fashioned but being old fashioned has its good points in saying that this guy is a total LOSER!!! What ever happened to a guy driving YOU around and treating YOU with his OWN money! He has a job! He could at least stop being cheap and pay you for wasting your time, gas money, and maintenance on your car. I think he's being selfish in thinking that you'll always be there for him and he's taking advantage of your kindness. Think of it this way, my bf at some point in our relationship didn't have a job, car, or money. Yet he somehow managed to see me and take me out. Love is a two-way street. I think you should give him 2 weeks without any rides and see how it goes from there. You'll know after the end of two weeks.
Good Luck ^_^ ]
Does driving your boyfriend around use up so much gas that the cost is a serious issue? If yes, you do need to let him know. He wouldn't want you to be struggling, would he?
One way of making it simpler is to fill up the car while he's with you, because that would be a logical time to bring it up, and not make it seem too out of the blue.
An alternative is to just subtly suggest that he pays for things (like food, movie tickets or anything else you might need to buy on a date) when you go out together. That way, it will seem less like you're always asking him for money, and while you won't be getting cash back, you then don't have to spend money that you might otherwise spend. (Of course, that doesn't work if he's already the one who pays for everything.) ]
