We're both university students, but I'm a bit of a savings whizz, and he has a pretty high paying part time job.
So far, we've both been able to pay our own airfare - not that if need be, the other wouldn't offer to help pay.
When we're actually together, we just pay for things - it doesn't necessarily matter who pays, and it works out to be pretty much 50-50 anyway. My attitude is that money is just money. I pay for the things that I have to, and save when we're apart, and that means that I can be a little frivilous when we're together. And that's how I like it. There are always opportunities to make more money, but when you're with your SO, you get that little time you have together to make it as special as possible. I guess we're both pretty lucky in the sense that we've always been able to afford to visit whenever we have an opportunity - that doesn't mean we haven't worked for it - it's just the way things have worked out for us.
