Ask Dali Mama

DEAR DALI MAMA:

I have a new boyfriend and as soon as I get my paycheck, he always asks what I made and asks me for half of it. I don’t feel good about this. How do I handle this?

—Feeling Weird (United States)

DEAR FEELING WEIRD:

Run!

You are feeling weird because your knowingness is aware that this behavior is not right. You deserve much better. It is none of his business at this point how much you make and you don’t need to share your paycheck with him.
