My bf gets the GI bill and doesn't want to work? Am I being unreasonable?

You are not unreasonable. If he can't support himself without asking you for a handout, then he needs to do something about it. You need to stop enabling him. He didn't earn the right to mooch off you. If he wasn't with you, how on earth would he get by? So you need to get tough with him. When he asks for money, tell him you can't afford it. Soon enough he'll realise he needs to be doing something. Right now it is far too easy for him to take advantage of you. And you are allowing it by always coming through with money. You are not a bank! If you're planning a future - marriage, babies, who will support you when you're off work? Where is the relationship headed? What is his plan - to use 'I earned the right to...' forever and What help is he to you, say if you lost your job - who is supporting you? All I see is You making all the effort, and him living the good life. And I'm of the opinion that every young, well and able bodied person should be working (excludes stay at home parents), especially seeing as though most people need to work to live.
