  well......the girl is working with a monthly salary above 1.3K for more than 1/2 year. the guy(not working) is still studying. if the guy knows that the gal has no $$$ to spend anymore. i think he will not ask her out or even ask her to pay. lastly, the guy even provides all the transportation to & fro everytime they go out.

  wah.. then this is not correct liao loh..
  salary above 1.3k.. how broke can she be?
  and anyway i believe it's unhealthy in a relationship where the guy keeps paying everything for the girl... especially when the guy is still studying and the girl is already working...
  the girl buey paiseh meh!!
  
  and it's this type of girls who spoil the general image of all singaporean girls....

  the girl seems to belong to the group of girls that want guys to pay everything for her ... then again you started the HABIT of allowing her to not pay at all .... can't really blame her for expecting you to pay too rite ? I'm not saying that she is rite ... just saying that it's a habit already. Infact i despise girls who wanna just live off their BF, let alone a friend ... but, you can always not allow it anymore ... if you realise that she does not wanna go out with you in future just coz she had to pay on her own, then isn't it obvious enough that she is only after the attention and free entertainment ?? I would say, stay off such girls ....
  Inversely, since this guy is a student and the girl is drawing a regular income, shouldn't she offer to PAY ??? I know I would....

  If she's working then, why not talk about it with her?
  I mean, my boyfriend used to be a tight arse as well.
  And i changed his royal tightness by talking to him.

  if she is broke then she shld atleast know her limits..
  I mean like she gota be humble in the sense of spending reasonable.
  if she know its beyond her limits then forget it, rather then using him as a 'backup' or money tree.

  is the gal materialistic or is the guy in the wrong?

  I agree with springtime - the whole thing started off that way in the first place, and changing it can be very awkward.
  
  My girlfriend and I are always in a race to whip out our wallets first - it's our running joke.

  be careful the Power of Women Charter.
  You need to give women half of your money and housing etc after divorce. During marriage, you must also support her
