GF salary Vs. My salary

Me and my gf have been dating for 5 years. Back in 2020, I started my career with a package of ₹5 LPA. Over the years, I’ve reached ₹22 LPA in 2025. She started her journey with ₹3 LPA(2020) and is now earning ₹8 LPA(2025). We’ve been in a live-in relationship for around 2 years, and the idea was to share expenses equally. But, equal sharing never really happened. If we go to a café she likes, especially with friends, I will pay the entire bill. We only split the house rent and grocery bills. I told her lots of time to cut down these costly cafe expenses or earn more money, increase your package, study and work hard, but.....she is now in her comfort zone. Being from a tech background, I have seen people upgrade their skills and package for a good life in metro cities. I am ready to support her in her studies, but she is like I am earning enough for myself.... No, you are not. I love her, but I don't know how to overcome this issue between us. Please suggest!

I dint liked anything due to lot of politics

Job security - Good

Dislikes

This is one of the worst company where the managers do lot of politics, Good compensation and hike will be given only to the persons who are close to manager. They won’t bother if you give complain also. Managers behave so cheap where you can’t expect in corporate world. You will never grow under this type of people.

Salary is OK kind.

Dislikes

WDC gives random promotion, which are not related wot the work done. Employee can threaten and get promotion, can get salary hike. So deserving employees who wants to stay they remain behind while others who can get an outside offer and gets promotion and hike. No Work life balance. Management decisions are random, specifically after Khurram became SVP, he is removing all the people he does not like and promoting his favorite ones. There are many other thongs as well, but these are the ones which are important.

Skill development - Bad
