What do you think of my treatments toward my SO?

I don’t usually ask about relationship question but I would like to hear about your opinions about certain things that I plan to implement on my partner, so here goes:

- I plan to tell him that whenever we’re out eating together he does not need to feel like he needs to pay for my meals. I can and will pay for myself. I want to develop a code with my partner where both of us can freely mention who’s treating who when we feel like it. It could be something like “Hey, do you want to eat in xxx, it’ll be my treat”, if no treat is mentioned by either one of us then it is a tacit understanding that we’ll pay for ourselves. I don’t mind paying for him when I can but he has made it clear that he’ll be the one paying for our meals. Will I hurt a typical man’s ego by doing this? What do you think?

- I plan to say to him that he needs not to feel obligated to text me every single day. He can text me just when he feels like it and I will be just as pleased. However, I would say that he needs to at least text me twice a week to keep our relationship engaging. We live in different town and I can’t always meet him. Do you think I might give him too much freedom that he may abuse? What could he be possibly thinking about me when I say this to him?

- Currently, I can only utilize public transportation when we plan to go out together. He has his own vehicle and can pick me up. I am not sure how should I go about this. I would prefer using public transportation as I fear that he might think that I am a liability in the long run, and I don’t want to be his liability. I feel bad and my independence being questioned when he picks me up. Could he think lowly of me if I always insisting on using public transportation?

I hope I don’t ask too much. I know my questions sound juvenile but I have never implemented such things to my partner thus it worries me somehow. I just want him to be comfortable with our relationship and not feel like I’m a clingy person. I will appreaciate any answers. Thank you for taking your time and consideration in reading this post.
