So I make twice the salary my bf does, and I seem to pay more (70%) in all the trips we do. Is this a serious problem?

Yes. You should be paying 66.67%, not 70

I pay for pretty much everything in my relationship. My SO works at a NFP, so makes about as much as my assistant. But he's cute, sweet, and does good in the world. I think I'll keep him. 😉

No, it’s not a problem unless you’re resentful.

Speaking from experience as well, it can definitely becomes a problem if you aren’t communicating about it. Assuming your finances are still separate.

Would your SO think it’s a problem? They may not recognize there’s even a minor issue

Speaking from experience here, it could become a problem down the road.

Do you think you should pay more because you earn more? Does he know you make double and does he realize you contribute 70 vs his 30? I mean... kinda common sense if you communicate.

Looking at exits into pharma and biotech. Have an opp at a biotech at the SM level.

My sales lead just gave me my quota for the year. Its increased 120% from last year.

For additional context, I crushed my quota last year but I feel like I’m being punished now.
