i know it hurts. the thing is... sometimes we need to reach beyond our hurt (that is justified and legitimate given our past circumstances in life) to this person here right now in the present. here right now for us... doing what? well... that is up for you do decide.

> now I believe in my soul all she cares about is money at this point, not my emotions and my financial situation.

well then that is the way it is. if you really believe that then every thing that she may have said or done to counter that is... basically worthless. that is basically the consequence of what you are saying. if that is they way you feel then indeed, you should not continue on seeing her. really, you should not continue on seeing a person who only cared about money despite your emotions and your financial situation.

the thing is... do you really believe that about her? don't get me wrong, you may well feel it... the fact of the matter, however, is that she simply can't take back all the legitimate and understandable reasons why you feel that anybody who you interact with feels that way. if you can't transcend that to the degree of seeing that maybe she is different... then, well, there really isn't any hope for your relationship. a way of minimizing hurt would basically be... for things to end here.

or maybe... she is worth more to you than that. maybe... her actions (on their own merits rather than them all confused up with your past experiences) simply don't fit the pattern. if you decide this is so and can convey both to yourself and to her that this is so that there is hope for you to have a working relationship then things are salvagable. if you genuinely think that she only cares about the money... then run... run... fast as you can.

up to you.
