New relationship; when do you talk about money?

Asked by zenvelo (39434points) May 18th, 2012

We’re both single working adults (50s), and both capable of treating the other to dinner and an event out. But I have debts from my previous marriage that are occasionally overwhelming, plus support payments. And while she is quite self sufficient, I know her income does not allow any lavishness. So at what point do we go beyond “let’s do this” to “I can’t afford to do that, here’s why?”

I am thinking it’s past exclusivity but before too much commitment. What do you think?
