I told my gf I wanna go 50/50 in our relationship after initially insisting I pay for most things. She’s been fine with it but I brought this up to my friend & he called me cheap bc I come from a wealthy family & she does not. Am I a bad bf?

Depends on your age tbh and how far in the relationship you are, are you 18 and have been dating 5 months? or 24 and thinking about her being your wife? Mostly if you don't live together/ have jointed lives then it can be 50/50 or whatever you guys wish. If you live together and are still going off 50/50 rather then what works as your partnership then it's different

That depends. Is it much easier for you to acquire money than her? It really heavily depends on how serious your relationship is, imo. If it’s casual, whatever, but if you’re approaching life as a unit, then it’s important, and it’s not about the cash value but the effort put into acquiring it. Most importantly, pay attention to her needs and how she’s affected. If it puts strain on her when it wouldn’t strain you, try to work something else out with her.

I don’t think so, it can change on your type of work. Like who makes more money, who’s more stable in their career, and stuff like that.
