Dear Princess123:

I do remember that you shared before that the abusive man (the refuge) didn’t pay rent for some time. I don’t remember all the details, but here is my point regarding that man: he made suggestions that you were a prostitute, or should be (suggesting to bring you customers, if I remember correctly). Plus he hurt you with his unwanted sexual acts. Now, it doesn’t matter if he pays your rent or you  pay his rent, what is important is that in neither case you live with a man who sexually violates you and who suggests to bring you customers.

Fast forward, this latest man who sent you a picture of your love notes to him flushed down the toilet after you went traveling with a male friend. There is this simple fact that most men do not want their girlfriend to travel overnight with a male friend, especially if the girlfriend is as young and beautiful as you. It is not unreasonable to think that a young male friend an a young female friend traveling together and sharing overnight accommodations,  will be sexually interested in each other, is it?

One more thing regarding sex and money in the context of a relationship: make sure there are no misunderstandings, that finances are agreed on by the two parties and that the two parties believe the financial arrangement is fair and that no one is being used in any way, sexually or financially.
