Big age gap relationship - 30 years difference

[Donrobert]

I am a guy and I am seeing this guy for about 2 months now, we started with texting and developed into something romantic. We enjoyed talking and hanging out for the first few weeks. Since I care about him,  I have been giving him extra cash for dinners and daily expenses which I don’t mind at all. But the last 2 weeks, he doesn’t want to hang out anymore, because he is busy with work and school, which I totally understand. But he has been asking if I can continue giving him cash even though he doesn’t want to see me and hang out with me anymore. Should I just give in to his request or cut off any communications?  I really like him but I feel I’m just being used. Please give some sound advice on what should I do. My heart says stick with him but my mind says otherwise.

Serious question - why would you? 

He isn't going to stick around. It would be foolish to keep giving this person money.

just repeat what you said outloud.

he doesn't want to hang out with you, but he wants you to keep giving him money.

Cut it off and move on.

Just an update. It’s finally over. I’ve cut him off. I’m just dealing with the emotional fallout but I’m going to be okay. Thank you all for the replies

I wish you the best.

Late to the party, but I’m glad you cut him off. You’re not his meal ticket. If he’s too busy to see you, hang out, or put any effort into the relationship, but somehow has time to ask you for money, that tells you pretty much everything you need to know.

So after few days of no texts or contact, he texted me, just a casual conversation. No apologies, no I miss you, no drama. Just a friendly text. Then started saying about car problems and needing insurance. He didn’t explicitly mention that needed help to pay for his financial obligations but I can read between the lines. But I’m proud of myself that I didn’t give in to my emotions and stood my ground. I guess karma has a nice way of taking care of the situation without me lifting a finger.
