| 0:00.0 | Hi everybody. Welcome to AITA Pod. I'm Danny Vega, joined by the inimitable Shano D. |
| 0:11.7 | That's me. AITA for telling my boyfriend to stop eating so much. During my 28M undergrad years, |
| 0:24.4 | 10 years ago, my parents paid for my grocery bills because they really believe that good food is important to a student's health. They never set a monthly |
| 0:29.7 | limit to how much I could spend, but I was frugal and never went over a $200 limit I imposed on myself. |
| 0:35.9 | Now I'm back in grad school for my master's and my parents, |
| 0:38.8 | well, they're covering again. I know I'm an adult with a few years of work under my belt, |
| 0:42.9 | but not having to worry about groceries lets me chip at rent and loans and other bills without |

| 1:23.9 | He's seriously messing up my finances. |
| 1:25.7 | I planned basically down to the dollar. |
| 1:28.0 | We got into arguments, and his side is that my parents are going to cover anyway, |
| 1:31.6 | so I need to stop spending my own money and not worry. |
| 1:34.4 | And when I go over to his house, I eat his food too, but I don't eat as much as he does. |
| 1:38.4 | My arguments are, just because my parents are covering, |
| 1:41.0 | doesn't mean he can eat anything he wants. |
