> This one particular girl told me her mom was in hospital and she needs money for the hospital. I have no idea if she is playing with me or if it is for real.Yuck, that sounds like a classic romance scam tactic, asking for money for a sick relative.

> she said "its ok i want you, not your money". Which was probably a big fat lie.Your instincts are likely correct here. Obviously she wants your money. That's what strippers and such do for a living. They have to hustle men for extra money by flattering them. I assume their base pay just isn't enough.

> So there are negative consequences to my behavior yet i seem unable to stop. The walls are closing in.It's very difficult when a relationship that started out benefiting you transitions to hurting you more and more. It's hard to navigate. I personally really hate the feeling of being taken advantage of financially, so that's a big red flag for me and I would take steps to end it.
