Maybe this was clarified somewhere and I missed it, but she doesn't actually work or have any source of income, right? How could she pay for one night of a weekend vacation? Doesn't she have like rent and food to worry about ahead of frivolous stuff like trips?

I don't normally reply to 54 page threads because I'm not going to read through everything, but look at the end of page 53 it looks like the OP is doing well so I'll edit my post and wish him the best.

Personally I'm not flying women all over the United States after knowing them for just a month, but some people can do that kind of thing. Make sure to get a prenup. If they care they'll sign it. You'd be silly not too if you make the money to do all that traveling while she doesn't even have a job.. women know a good thing when they see it and they can be real users! Make sure you get to know the real her and not the performance she might be putting on to achieve some end goal at which point she stops putting out and starts getting demanding. Happens all the time!

Does she have a source of income?
I don't think this was ever covered anywhere in the thread.

Oh man. Well, I mean if op's going to complain; yet, put up with her actions, then there's really nothing to complain about. He's allowing her to take advantage of him. The real problem is him, not her. And if he's not going to fix or leave what's causing him stress, then he's comfortable with his settlement. Maybe he needs to seek a professional. This is beyond the forum's help, mine at least.

Absolutely correct.

That's what I was wondering. Although she may not be paying rent now that she's squatting at OP's place and providing all manner of domestic services.

She now cleans my house regularly and finds us relatively inexpensive events for us to do.
As of 10.13 you had JUST put your foot down about expensive dates and in fact, on that day she was trying to get free gas out of you but it's been 18 days?

I'm not amazing at math, but 21 minus 13 does not equal 18.

Maybe he meant Sol 18 or 18 in dog years.
