<human>: My boyfriend and I have been living together for about a year. We aren't hurting to make ends meet, but it seems like we're always living paycheck to paycheck in spite of the fact that our expenses are probably about half of what we take home. My boyfriend makes twice as much money as I do, and therefore pays the rent note while I'm responsible for all the other bills (electric, gas, water, cable/internet, groceries, and savings). We each have our own cell phone and car insurance bills that we take care of on our own, and they add up to about the same amount for each of us. 

All of his bills come around the same time each month and he's always dipping into the savings I pay toward to help him with his part of the bills. I don't mind helping him out, but this is becoming an issue because I'd like for us to be able to go on vacations, or to be able to afford to get new furniture when we need it, or to even just have money for emergencies. He, however, always seems to need me to pay part of his bills, which drains anything I can save. After my bills, and everything, I'm usually only able to save about $200-$400 each month while still living comfortably. This isn't so bad, in my opinion, but now savings is down to $100 again because he needed money again. This happens just about every month. 

I try to cut back on the amount of activities we go out and spend money on, but this just prompts him to spend money on other things. He's very adamant about keeping our finances separate, so I don't think me managing his portion of income is going to be an option. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do to prevent him from draining savings? I'm at a loss.
