I don't give her money directly, simply because there still exists a temp. restraining order, so that would technically be a violation. Also, most of the time, I drive by that pharmacy several times per day, so no big deal really. Also, this way, I know what the prescription actually is, and if I gave her money, I don't know for sure where it is really being spent.
And she has been spoiled, but now, she sees that is ending. She spent all of her and our money, has nothing, and the only way she'll make it through is to 1) get a job, 2) gt money from me, plus the job, 3) sugar daddy. The prospect of getting a job must frighten her, and given her health stuff, I doubt she could hold onto one.
So, if it takes her wanting to take a new look at our relationship because she wants an easier life, I can live with that. Really, I can. BUT, that would be the impetus to rekindle things, not the end result. No, no, no. She needs a lot of counseling, and if I can dangle the carrot promising a better life, then if that is what it takes, then that's what it takes.
