No she doesn't read romance novels. I think she built these expectation through her idea of what love should or could be, along with bad examples from past relationships she had and has witnessed form her parents.
She said last night that her mom would have been gone a long time ago if she could have afforded it. She never shared this with me before and it shed light on where her ideas about money come from. Her parents are in a better, healthier place now; but when she was growing up they were not.

The version of the story was not all hers or all mine, but mostly my interpretation of us from our last talk and reviewing our M.
Thanks for the pep talk. I know I am fighting for me to and that there are a lot of women who would like to be with me. I get a lot of comments from women along the line of "what is she thinking" or "you are the nicest guy I know". I am a catch for multiple reasons. I am young, in decent shape [6'2", 185lbs, and still have my hair :)], very successful, make six figures, business owner, smart, etc. etc. etc.
She has also felt that she may have lost her chance with me during the separation and didn't like the way it felt, so she has a lot too lose too.
