My brother in law is wealthy. He has been divorced for 6 years and he just met this girl that he has just flipped over. He says she is the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. They have known each other one week and he has already bought her a diamond necklace and a red corvette. He has a large house and a pool and a money making business of his own. She is in the middle of divorcing her husband that makes "normal" money and could have never given her any of the things that my brother in law is giving her in just one week. I'm afraid he will just freak and marry her too soon. Can a relationship like this really last? She is 15 years younger than him. Do you think it would be possible that this could last? If they wind up not having anything in common or if she gets bored, do you think she would stay with him just for the money? I forsee disaster and I hate to warn him but I think he needs to slow down and find out who she really is.

If your brother in law was smart he wouldn't reveal his wealth so soon in a relationship. This only opens himself up to be used.
Personally I would run from a man like that anyway. If he feels he needs to impress a woman with buying her things right off the bat like that then he is probably a very insecure man who can't impress a woman without his money.

Based on your report, I would like to think that she might be the person you think she is. Usually, this kind of relationship does not last for long. It might be classified as an affair but not a committment. Why not warn your brother in law and save him from unforseen disaster?

all you can do is give a friendly suggestion of maybe slowing down just a tad... he is an adult and I am sure has been around the block more than once... true love can NOT be seen by outside eyes, and yes the is a possibility that she is using him, but that is his bunisness and no one elses... there are ppl out there that make a living at zero in on a *sucker*, sorry, but ya know what I mean ?, anyway, like I said , you can subtly make the suggestion of going slow and protecting himself, like a prenep, if it comes to that, but otherwise the choice or mistakes are his to make.... God bless

yes am sorry she should do anything to stay with him for the money let him discover that the girl is all about the money not him and if hes really caring for her he wouldn't listen to what people think or say he would be to blind to see the truth hopefully all his wealth would keep her by his side because once the money is gone she will just tell him good bye and look for some one else with $$$$$$$$$.

Shes mostly likely using him, shes taking advantage of what your brother in law is giving her, and doing for her. It wont stop there. More to come, unless someone has a serious talk with him....

Possible? Yes. Probable?... Probably not... Unfortuneatly a price that comes with wealth is anothers lust for wealth... That situation sounds like your standard gold digging to me. Best of luck!

Who knows? But I certainly hope she isn't just with him for the money. U could certainly express your concern about it but let him make the final decision/

let him have some fun . if he marries her talk to him about a pre nup - if he doesn't just let him have fun as long as he isn't hurting anyone - 15yrs she can make him a good nanny when he gets older

honestly, only time will tell..............do warn him.......dont expect him to immediately embrace ur perspective............id say a warning and to keep his eyes open is sage advice..........u should also keep watch, id see if things get more noticeably "usey".....then take swift, stern action.
