A Twitter user shares lessons from her failed relationship where she earned more than her man.

Read Below:

I was young and free. Just before clocking 30 and dating this guy I thought the world of. I earned like 5-10 times as much as he did. He wanted us to be married. It felt great and right only that some older people said No. Reason? I earned way higher.

It made no sense at the time. What did earning capacity have to do with love. Dad said you are even more ambitious and driven with more at your disposal. Don't do it!. I thought it was just cheap talk.

I stuck to my guns. It was going to be him or nothing else. Love was enough. It didn't take 6 months before all they said came to life before my eyes. He wanted me to give money for his projects. He wanted loans. I wasn't willing to do so and it became war.

Verbal and emotional abuse ensued. He cursed me to no end. I was acting too big or thought I was. I wasn't a supportive lover etc. It went on until I couldn't take it anymore. Then it got worse. How dare I walk away from the relationship and his love?

The emotional blackmail and insults. It took a while to get over such a person and all because I wanted him to double his own career goals and steps rather than live off me.
