Default Is the girlfriend have to pay always?

My boyfriend doesn't make that much money, and when he does have some, he has to use it to pay for cell phone bills and car payments. I have a good deal of money (I do work for it, but I'm also dependent on my dad who sends me checks once in a while, though that's mainly for rent, ultiities, and food). I like to go out to eat when I'm with my boyfriend because during the regular week, I'm either in school or working, and so I make my own food during that time. I also like to go to the movies, go explore places (and that usually involves having to pay for parking), museums, local events, etc. I've been paying for most of our stuff, food, whatever, for a good 7 months now, and I'm getting sick of it. I suggested to him that he finds a better paying job, but he claims if he does, he'll have to work more hours and have less time to do homework (we both go to college but at different schools)..so he basically still won't be able to see me unless I pay for things. I'm also a good-hearted person and not like having to make my own food while watching my boyfriend eat nothing..and I do like going out for meals, but I always have to pay. We even giggle when the waiter hands my boyfriend the bill. We even try to go to cheap events and eat at cheap places so I don't have to pay for so much. He used to pay for alot of our things, but when he lost in his job last Dec, I've become the main 'provider' in money..I've also bought him a few things (gifts, such as his bday, our anniversary) but I have NOT bought anything personally for him, such as clothes or whatever, I refuse to do that. But since I'm sick of paying..and I've probably spent over $500 dollars on us now, the only conclusion we can find is to not spend time witheach other and avoid going places unless we plan far in advance, so we'll both have some money prepared. It's not that I don't have any money, I do..but I now feel guilty if I spend for myself because I feel that it could've been saved for my next meal or whatever w/my boyfriend. There must be a better solution to this, I'm getting frustrated and he feels gulity because he can't be a typical boyfriend and pay for most of things. I mean, I'd be willing to switch off once in a while, or split a bill..but we can't even do that. Argh..there must be someone else in this position. What am I supposed to do?? I don't want it to hurt the relationship.
