My Boyfriend Earns ₦110k but Keeps Borrowing From My ₦75k Allowance

I have been with my boyfriend since university, and I still love him deeply. But his habit of borrowing money from me has become harder to ignore. When we were students, he said his family was struggling, so I often helped with small amounts. Now he works as a data analyst and earns ₦110,000 monthly, yet he still asks me for ₦20,000 to ₦30,000 at a time and rarely pays it back. I am currently living on a ₦75,000 monthly allowance from my parents, but I have started setting money aside in anticipation of his requests. I am worried he is not being honest about his spending, but I fear another fight if I confront him. He has mentioned marriage, and I want a future with him. Still, I need an open conversation about money before deciding whether this relationship is healthy for me.
