Love but poor....been there, done that, too.
I dated someone for 3 1/2 years that was LOADED. He was an only child and his mom always wanted a daughter, so she spoiled me rotten. They had a private jet, houses all over the country that we flew to all the time, lavish vacations, expensive shopping sprees, the works. But my bf was a complete jerk. He was also a pot head. He was set to inherit his dad's business, so he had no motivation to do anything in life. His dad was a COMPLETE jackass to his mom, too. I could already tell that my then bf was starting to become just like his dad. That, on top of the drug problem, I finally found the courage to dump him. Don't get me wrong, I miss the lavishness, but it isn't worth it. I could always tell that his mother was miserable with her marriage but she didn't want to get out of it because of the money. But I for one did NOT want to turn out like that. I chose love.
