how do you know if someone likes you for you or for your money?

Answer 1

Give me your money to "look after" and then you can find out.

Answer 2

That's an excellent question and a very tough one to answer! You can never be completely sure whether it is the money or not...I would say this:

First of all, in this day and age, money is a great contributor to happiness. Without money you cannot do anything (and I know cos I've been living on less that 1000 bucks a month for the past three years and it sucks!!!); you can't go to the movies, see plays, take vacations etc. So, not having money keeps you from doing the things you want which can make a person go crazy!

Secondly, once you have money to keep your basic needs satisfied, it is so hard to distinguish between what you want and what you need (and what we need is much less than we realize but what we want keeps us happy). And the paradox of human nature is that once we have something we want more and more.

Bottom line: money is important no matter what people tell you. SO probably, if you have a lot of money, it may not mean that she is with you because of it, but it may be that she will stick with you through stuff and put up with much more than she normally would because of your money. Yes, she cares about it, because it is just too darn hard not to! But if she really likes comfort and you know that she will be less inclined to give it up and will therefore be with you longer...does it really matter? Does it matter that she likes your money if you can keep her?

The thing is that if you have money, you are less likely to meet or put up with someone like me, who is gonna tell you" I don't give two sh**s about your money, I'm going out with my three hot guy friends and I don't know when I'm gonna be back. I don't care if you like it or not, cos you are not supporting me so f off!" How would you like that?

Anyways, if you are still worried that she only likes you for the money, ask her, test her or date someone who also has money (preferably more than you!). Testing her will be a long process at the end of which she will be livid either way! So, you should start by not buying her expensive gifts (get her flowers from like Giant), taking her out to dinner to regular places (like Taco Bell), taking her to the movies in the afternoon (when shows are cheaper) and drop all the unnecessary expenses. And if she asks about it, just tell her that you had to take a pay cut, or business is not as good or, you dad cut you off or something. Make up stories. Now, if you are not willing to do that (eat at regular places etc.), you really can't blame her, can you?

I'm sure you don't like my answer too much, but I still hope it helped a little. Good luck!

Answer 3

That requires a destructive test. You can find out but probably ruin the relationship no matter the result.

You could try telling this person that when you die you are planning on putting all of your money in a trust fund that hands out scholarships to local school kids. That way you will have no one fighting over your money and the money is going towards a good cause.

No guarantee that it will tell you what the person's goals are but you might cause the person to react somehow.

Answer 4

Might i suggest that when you go out on dates etc ask this person if you can pay half of the bill.Don`t flaunt the cash or show how well off you are and never give the impression that you`ll pick up the tab.Also never buy over the top gifts or treats,just be yourself and think about a romantic gesture but in a subtle way.If all else fails come clean and outright ask,"are you with me for my money",honesty is the best policy...........good luck.

Answer 5

Money is a tricky thing in any relationship. I have always 'paid my way' in any new relationship - unless it was a birthday treat or something I would expect any date to behave like a friend and pay out a bit. Say for instance i bought cinema tickets I would think my friend/date a bit tight if thy waited for me to buy the drinks/popcorn too!

Even now that I live with my partner and its pretty much 'our money' I feel bad if he is the one always putting his hand in his pocket.

Its by what someone doesn't do that you can tell what they are in a relationship for I think.

Answer 6

Dont flash the cash or offer to pay for everything, a relationship should be 50/50 so if u get an adverse reaction to this then you might have to think about what there real intentions are.
Hope things work out for you

Answer 7

Answer 8

Presuming that they know how much money you have...or THINK you have, the surefire way to know is: do they ask you to buy things for them, either directly or just hint at it? Do they have expensive tastes? Do they seem to be materialistic and overly pre-occupied with their "lifestyle?" That should tell you something.

Answer 9

I was wondering where you were, glad your heart is still ticking & ok
just sign up a pre nuptual ( how ever you spell it lol )
but you should know how she kisses you etc & just loves you & praises you up & she should think you are so clever & the best thing since sliced bread haha

Answer 10

try being a little cheap when they want something and watch the reaction. After doing this to them a couple of times, you will figure them out.
