Just do address this, I mentioned earlier I was in an abusive relationship I felt trapped in and yes, finances definitely played a part. Except I was the one making the most money in the house, almost double what my partner was making (because they were barely working, not because I was making a lot of money). They were also spending just about every penny we made together on things we didn't need, like expensive cigarettes and weed. 70% of my income alone just went to our apartment every month. He made just enough money that I wouldn't have been able to survive easily without his contribution, but also spent enough that I couldn't save enough money to seed a safe exit from the relationship (I tried, he even continued to spend my money even after we broke up by stealing my debit card in the middle of the night). Bring trapped in a relationship financially =/= "you're mooching off your partner" and it's a stupid thing to say, once again bringing bold assumptions and sweeping generalizations to a subject that involves a wide selection of human experiences and motivations.I don't even mean that. Using your partner as a means to finance your life while you're cheating on him or her is just really scummy. I can't believe anyone can say that it's okay. Even using a word as nebulous as "TRAPPED" to describe such a situation.
Also just to give you an idea, I didn't have a family I could just run away too and I didn't have any local friends as we had relocated to the other side of the country together. All we had was each other. His personality completely changed after we relocated, I was 10 years younger than him and was extremely manipulative. And yes it was naive and yes I should've got out sooner because that would've been the "smart" thing to do. It was a physically, emotionally, and financially abusive situation and the longer it went on the more I felt like I didn't know how to get out of the situation. And to the "just go to the cops" dude, good luck trying to get the police in a conservative state to help you with your abusive homosexual relationship.
And before it gets brought up, no I never cheated but I definitely thought about it and had I been presented with an opportunity to do I can't say that I wouldn't have.
