How to Tell if Someone Is Using You for Sex or Money

It’s unfortunate but true that some people may exploit you for their personal gain, whether it’s obtaining privileges, connections, or emotional support. Being aware of the signs is crucial to avoid being taken advantage of. In relationships, users often seek physical or financial benefits. Here are indicators to identify if you’re being used in these ways:

Signs of Being Used for Sex:

1. Strange hours: If your partner insists on meeting late at night without engaging in meaningful activities, it may suggest a focus on sexual encounters.
2. Limited venues: If your partner avoids public spaces and only wants to be intimate at home or in a hotel, it could be a sign of being used for sex.
3. Inconsistent contact: Sporadic communication patterns, with a sudden surge of attention when they fear losing you, may imply a user’s intentions.
4. Lack of integration: If your partner’s friends show no interest in getting to know you or seem uninterested, it might indicate your partner doesn’t see a long-term commitment.
5. Post-coital dismissal: A clear sign of being used for sex is when your partner promptly dismisses you after intimacy, without showing interest in cuddling or meaningful conversation.

Signs of Being Used for Money:

1. Early generosity: If your partner pays for initial dates to establish a sense of obligation, but subsequently expects you to shoulder all expenses, it may indicate they are using you financially.
2. Frequent sob stories: A recurring pattern of financial emergencies or unexpected expenses that only you can resolve may suggest manipulation.
3. Money-focused conflicts: Arguments consistently revolving around financial matters, with no resolution unless you provide money, may indicate exploitation.
4. Materialistic praise: Rather than valuing your qualities and accomplishments, your partner primarily focuses on your possessions and financial status.
5. Expensive taste: Constantly seeking lavish experiences and showing dissatisfaction with more modest options could signal a motive for financial gain.
6. Lack of motivation: If your partner lacks drive or ambition to earn their own money, relying heavily on your financial support, it may indicate exploitation.

Recognizing these signs allows you to protect yourself from relationships where you are seen solely as a means for physical gratification or financial support. Prioritize finding someone who values you for more than your body or bank account.
