It blinds you to the fine print they\u2019ve hidden in their generosity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When my boyfriend Matt suggested we move in together, I thought it was a dream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThink about it, Alice,\u201d he said. \u201cWe practically live together already. Why pay for two places?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It made sense. I loved my job at the shelter, but it didn\u2019t pay much. Matt, with his high-paying remote tech job, reassured me. \u201cI\u2019ll take care of us,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We found a cozy apartment, and I was excited to start our life together. But when I returned from grabbing lunch, I found all my belongings stuffed into a hall closet while Matt\u2019s things took over the entire space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m paying for this place, so I set the rules,\u201d he shrugged. \u201cYou should cook, too. It\u2019s the least you can do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I didn\u2019t argue. Instead, I called his father. Fifteen minutes later, Mr. Reynolds arrived, slapped a dollar on the counter, and told Matt, \u201cDance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That night, I moved out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, in my own space, I know one thing: real love doesn\u2019t come with conditions. And I won\u2019t settle for anything less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/?p=54640\">also read..<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s something intoxicating about someone wanting to provide for you.
