Can money ultimately make or break a relationship?
My ex recently broke up with me for the 3rd in 60 days. We were in a LDR, and I went to see him twice, once in Australia and once in Switzerland. I bought both of my plane tickets for those trips, and I was able to support myself part of the time in Australia but not in Switzerland. Back in early December he broke up.he was saying that I wasn't the one for him, and I wasn't learning French enough...so I went no contact, one day went by and he texts me asking to meet me online. In that conversation he said he was sorry for doing that, and that he wants to come see me in California. So continued. Fast forward to mid January. He tells me he probably won't come because he doesn't have enough money for California, but he will go to Thailand instead because it's much cheaper, so he said since he was coming maybe we should end the relationship because we wouldn't see each other for awhile. I was crushed and tried to make him reconsider and he ultimately did. We had a long talk, and he said he is coming to see me in March. Fast forward to feb 2, 2011-doomsday, we meet online, and I already knew..he said its so hard to see you. I couldn't believe it. So he proceeded to explain why we had to break up saying what am I going to do for work in his country( I am getting a personal training cert that is what I was going to do for an income) He said he didn't want to be responsible for me and that is all I want, I was like huh? I made it clear to him that isn't what I want on numerous occasions. I had been picking apart this break up. I have been asking myself questions over and over, and I just really think this is about money above anything else. I just recently got an email from him, in which he tells me he is going on a Holiday to Thailand and now is subletting his apartment. How cold is he? What do you guys think?
