A few months ago, I asked here whether splitting the bill on a date with someone my age meant he wasn’t interested in me.

https://universe-club.jp/help/questions/view/8044 Thank you so much for all your answers. Since then, I’ve gone on several more dates with him, and we ended up becoming a couple. He’s my first boyfriend in two years. When I asked how he felt, he said that he had pushed himself too hard in his previous relationship and they broke up after six months, so he didn’t want to pretend to have values or a lifestyle beyond his means. These days, sometimes he treats me, sometimes we split the bill, and sometimes we just spend a relaxing day together at home. I’m always so grateful for the help I receive here. I used to be a respondent myself and answered once or twice, but I don’t feel qualified to give people advice. I’m always impressed by those of you who continue answering questions, and I regularly read through the Q&A section. You’re all like seniors in life to me.
