My relationship has been on and off because the person i was going out with was earning almost 3 times as much as i am. She does not like to receive gifts but to offer them instead. She refuses me to pay for stuff and i feel really bad. We had an argument that ended with her saying that i loved her just for the money. I left her at that point. Have you ever done this or vice versa?

Well i never experience this in my previous relationship, i really wished i can help you in your problems but i can only say this whatever you're problem is there is a solution. Here maybe i can give you an advise and example. I had my friend which had the same thing happen on you. They both having an argument because money matters involved in their relationship, my friend partner thinked that she only matters is the money within his partner. But i know my friend wouldn't like that, and she's very practical and generous in terms of money. She make a good conversation to her partner, and after they talked, they begin their relationship as a new and strong one. They overcome their problems by letting each other to forgive and understand to each other. I hope this will be a good reference on you.

Im sorry to hear that becasue your partner is not really understand and care what you have done for her. but sometimes, the word that came out from mouth during argument is not totally true. maybe they just want to say something to make you more you angry and dosent mean it represent what she really want to say and almost every girl is like this. plese give one more chance to her and yourself. maybe you need to have a good talk with her and see whether the situation is going to change.

I am sorry for your relationship is end. From your description, I guess your girl friend was not very secure from her previous relationship or she was taken advantage financially (if I am wrong), as a result, she was not secure about you either. So during your time with her, she was constantly upset about this, that was why she didn't like to receive gifts from you and refuse you to pay for everything.
If this is the case, although your relationship with her has ended, you should tell her how you felt about it if possible.

no, it will not be fun. And I dont beleive is manly for a guy to love for money. If true love is there before there is no big deal about loving some one richer

money answereth all things so they say but it should not be a priority in a relationship.as to your own case even with the little you had she should have given you the chance to buy her gifts and not vice verse she trampeled on your ego as a man but thank God u are have both parted.there is absolutely nothing wrong for the woman/girl to be richer that her man.love matters after all

I would never love someone just for the money. It just ends up with you having to many miseries in your life. Money is not everything in life that is for sure. I now make more than my husband and he does not care that I do. Life is just to important to worry about the little things in life. As long as we have enough to pay for bills that is good enough. Some day maybe have more but love is more important to me.

i'm sorry to hear about your relationship that ended like it did.
i've never loved a person for the money. actually in most of my relationships and even on my current one, it's either we both have the same financial status or i earn more. but earnings has never been an issue.
currently i earn more than my boyfriend. i know it bothered him a little. but it has never cost us a fight over. i have a strong personality but i keep it in a low profile when i deal with other people and in dealing with my relationship.
my boyfriend and i already made an agreement as to the finances and it seems to work out well. when he has more, he pays more. when he has less, he agrees for me to help out.
relationship is a partnership, not only on the emotions and physical side. we try to help each other out in different aspects too... intellectual, spiritual and financial. :)

No I have never loved someone for money. The people I dated in my years have never been big money bags. In fact most of them were just getting by. And that was fine for me. I don't really care about having alot of money. That is sad that she said that to you though, I would have been pretty upset if someone thought I was just in a relationship for money!
