quitting my career

My boyfriend is of means I won't say he is filthy rich but he is very comfortable. i work and have always worked he is retired. He wants me to quit my job I am 5 years away from Social security age but I am retired from the military.

My question is I am very independent and I don't think I would be comfortable asking for money all the time I am a frugal person however I feel like an allowance would not be out of the question for my daily needs it would make me feel better to know i have a set amount of money I can spend on my own without having to ask for it.

My salary is around 2000.00 a pay period of every two weeks. Do you think that asking for 2000 a month would be too much. I was thinking of an account that he could put the money into and then we could have a joint savings account and whatever money was left over at the end of the month of that 2000 i would put into the savings account.

Does this seem resonable to you? I am a clinical scientist.
