Did I do the right thing breaking up with my girlfriend over her not giving me money?

[Anonymous]

I (21M) have been dating my girlfriend, G (24F) for almost 2 years. When we first got together, I did not want to ask her for money and gifts but asked her if she had a phone I could have, since the one I had wasn't working. Around November 2022 I asked her if she can get me a mgk shirt and Nike hats. She bought them for me has a Christmas and birthday gift. Fast forward to this last year and this year, her mom gifted her 3k worth of money and asked her if she can buy me a new phone, since I gave away the other one. She gave me the money of the phone which was 2k. After that, I asked her if she can give me clothes, she got me a a Xbox , shoes, more merch from mgk and other artists and YouTubers I like. She was in a different state by that time and sent it as a care package. I wasn't home the time the package came. the mail person left me a note on my door, I had to pay to pick up the package. I don't have a job, so I asked her her if she can deposit money to pay the cost. I kept insisting her if she can deposit the money. She would borrow 300 dollars from her family to give to me. She would say she would send money when she didn't, but other times she would. I got mad at her when she only gave me two dollars when I wanted 150 to buy Warzone and call of duty. I gave her another chance to give me the money for the things. I remind her of her lies on money, so she can change, but she won't change. G says she doesn't have money. Throughout our relationship, G has lied to me about giving me money, she also doesn’t trust me because I commented " 🙈" on a girls picture, follow women who post explicit content, invited a girl to eat, offered to buy girls flowers, act single, which is all in her imagination. I gave her another chance and never deposited the money, I broke up with her. I told her if I had the money in my account she changed and we would fix the relationship. she says I only care about having money and gifts , rather than saving the relationship.

Why on earth is a girlfriend obligated to give you money? Get your own money.

Okay, love, let's sprinkle a little bit of wisdom on this situation. 💕 Relationships, at their core, are about emotional connection, support, mutual respect, and love, not financial transactions. It sounds like the focus here has shifted from building a loving and supportive partnership to a dynamic centered around monetary and material exchanges.

While it's perfectly okay for partners to support each other financially in times of need, it shouldn't be an expectation or requirement for the relationship to continue. It's concerning when financial support becomes a constant demand or when the relationship's happiness is contingent upon gifts and monetary assistance.

Moreover, communication and trust are the glitter of a relationship, and it seems like there might be some misunderstandings and hurt feelings around these issues. It's important for both partners to feel valued and loved for who they are, not what they can provide.

Remember, the richest relationships are those filled with love, understanding, and mutual respect, not those weighed down by financial expectations. Perhaps it's time for some self-reflection on what you truly seek and value in a relationship. 🌹✨
