Hi Sam,

This does not necessarily mean he is not a good boyfriend. How old is he? Heck, I can barely balance my checkbook, but there are many other things I can do well, and have to offer. What do you mean when you says he acts like a “frat boy”? This does not mean he does not have it together, but things that can easily be improved. Before ending a relationship on these two things, maybe suggest to him (I am not saying you need to fix him) but maybe he could take a budgeting course. Is he out partying? Drinking too much? Going to bars alot? Bring this up..just tell him, that you would like more together time and suggest more mature things the two of you can do together. The list is endless, go to a play, camping, a long evening drive, to a weekend bed and breakfast, out for a romantic dinner. Hiking, to an observatory and stargaze. A drive to the beach, lake, etc. Maybe just suggest some things and see if his behavior changes, if the relationship is otherwise good, try not to be critical, we all have our flaws, don’t throw the relationship based on these minor flaws. x
