My Boyfriend Thinks I Am His Bank Account!

[Michelle from Pittsburgh]

I have already told my parents, my cousin, my friends of my decision to break off this relationship and why. All of those I have spoken with agree that this relationship should be ended. My parents never agreed with my dating someone so much older than me to begin with. My dad even questioned me once before, "Why would a man whose around my age want to date someone your age? It doesn't make sense." I am thinking that my dad thought maybe this guy was taking advantage of me for some reason. My dad said if this guy really wanted a relationship he would be looking for someone closer in age to himself, not someone 25 years younger.

I realize now that people will manipulate you in this game called love, and that I need to recognize it when it is happening. I need to be more careful about whom I choose to be a mate. I should not be so naive, and so soft-hearted. I need to stand up for my needs, and what I need is someone who will respect me as much as I would respect them. I may have been stupid enough to get into this relationship, but I am now smart enough to know that I should end it.

Thanks for the advice!
