I do admit I get most of the things that I want but I just mention things to my parents that I want. Its not like I beg for them or even ask for them. I just say mom look at this perfume isn't it cool. Then a month later then they just get me the perfume. Also even though we have alot of stuff and take many vacations we always get huge discounts for everything that we do. Today my boyfriend that I have been dating for over a year and I were talking on the phone. He is less fortunate than me and has to buy alot of his own clothes and does not take vacations often. He said God forbid I didn't spoil you like your parents do.. I think you would have a panic attack. I was really offended.. I couldn't beleive my own boyfriend would say that. I have alot of stuff but none of it is brand name or anything and I don't go showing stuff off either. We got into a huge fight about it. What should I say to him to make him see it from my point of view?
Kick him in his region.

You could learn to get it for yourself and you wont be having this conundrum. However, I would like to have a mommy and daddy willing to throw money at my problems. Count your blessings or their money.

Tell him to leave you alone or even break up with him.

Say that you are only spoiled if having things turns you into a jerk.
If he gives the wrong response on that one, you can dump him.
If his comment hits you a bit too close to home, maybe you can get a part time job so you can feel like you contribute to the things you have in life.

umm maybe he was just kidding? maybe you should say what you just said here to him.

just tell him how he made you feel. i think he owes you an apology. if he doesn't, then maybe you need to rethink this relationship. don't let him make you feel bad because your parents like to do things for you.

hes afraid that he isnt good enough for you and afraid that he wont be able to take care of you the way that you are use to. if i were you, and you want to keep him. let him know that he doesnt have to worry about spoiling you at all.

Honey, just pick up your boot straps and go on. Tell your honey you are sorry that you made such a big deal over nothing. Is there something else that is really bothering you?

if he doesnt like u just because u hav stuff then he was never a true boyfriend. he is just probably mad cause u hav some cool stuff and he doesnt, he'll get over it, and if he doesnt, then thats his problem time for u to move on

the same thing happened to my cousin
If he has an inferiority complex over being less fortunate, then it is his issue…he has to "own" it and learn to deal with it…but I would tell him that insulting you would not be one the the ways to go about it…if he can not see this…move on because it will most likely remain a thorn in the side of your relationship

tell him what you told us. maybe he just feels bad that he can't give you all the things that your parents do. if you two really care about each other, you can work this out.
