This bachur is working. He didn’t say he is looking for someone to support him in kollel.
Also just because girls have hard things too has to relevance to that fact that this bachur is having a hard time with paying for dates. Both people could have problems. There have been a lot of suggestions on how to reduce costs. If s girll asks maybe she will get some tips too.
Btw at least from people I’ve spoke too the guy pays for several things like the band, photographer, flowers etc which ends up around 1/3 of the cost.
