Last friday, i left open my bank account on my laptop, she saw it and was very surprised by it. Asked me a bunch of questions,etc.
Past two days, she reaches for my hand/cuddles at night and day/constantly calling me baby/ which never happened for the past month.
Last night, she said "i love you" 3 times while we were drinking.
I feel like she's playing her cards.
Gee, ya think? This is so obvious! If you feel the relationship was on the way out before, you should give it a final push through the door. Before her Dec. tuition bill is due.
Mod cut: Orphaned. there are women out there who are after money (men too-- just like the gold digger cliche, there is the young man taking the rich older woman cliche for a reason).
It's never occurred to me to ask a man how much he makes or quiz him about money at all and I honestly think it doesn't occur to most women. I've had it volunteered to me (which is a bit insulting because it implies that's what I might be interested in) but I've never asked and I've never snooped.
I would say to the OP or to any man (or woman) if the person you are dating starts getting nosy about money, asking questions about how much you make, or asking for money--be on guard. Not only are there gold diggers, but professional cons as well.
Sorry this happened to you, but what I most learned is that I need to get my eyes checked, because I opened wondering why would GE (General Electric) be concerned with the idea that you make more money than they thought.
Let's see. Why would a man leave his financial information laying out in the open where a girl friend would see it?
I'm calling "using the money as a lure to hook a date". Mod cut: gender bashing.
So, OP, you've got your affectionate date. There is no reason to give her money. If she asks, just say no.
Then consider yourself lucky if she isn't a con artist who will use the information that you left lying out in the open to clean you out. Or that someone else hasn't seen it, since you don't take good care of your personal information.
That's a point, why would you leave your financial information open where she could see it if you didn't want her to have some sort of reaction to it?
He probably was at home. When I'm at home, my guard is down and I tend to leave things lying around that I wouldn't leave lying around outside my home. Example, I was on my computer when my apartment buzzer rang. I walked away from my computer without exiting the browser. I answered the buzzer and it was the Comcast guy. They said they would be around between 10 am-12 pm, but it was 12:30 pm. I buzzed him in. Since my apartment was on the first floor and just ten feet away from the entrance, I unlocked the door and he immediately came in. After 30 minutes, he finished his job. Then he asked if he could check to see if the internet was working. I said sure. I had completely forgotten that I had been watching porn on that I had saved on my hard drive. My computer's screensaver was on. When he sat down at my laptop and clicked out of the screensaver--WHOA!--Big surprise!
Not a coincidence that her attitude is different now. Dude she was distant after 3 months, when couples are usually fired up. She found a reason to hang on that involves green pieces of paper. Move on. She was clearly thinking of doing the same. Next time around keep signs of this cash silent and away. And crack a beer that you got an obvious sign early.
