Manipulation
Money may be the main reason that you are unhappy in your life right now, but it is not the only thing. If your partner treats you like money is all that matters, he or she is trying to manipulate you and control you. Your partner may also be using emotional blackmail against you, making you feel guilty or ashamed when you try to get out of the relationship.
You may even fear losing what little you have left. But the truth is, money isn’t everything. When we focus on other aspects of our lives and ourselves besides money, we become happier. A happy person is an empowered person.
