You think you've found a nice partner and super excited to claim him/her as your better half, only to realise he/she is using you for his/her own benefits. Doesn't sound fun, right?
Here are 3 signs you should know that he/she is significantly using you without your knowledge:
1. He/She fully depends on you financially
You and your significant other might be compatible in 1,000 ways but not when it comes to finances. However, it is not a bad thing.
It only becomes a problem when he/she is not making an effort to improve his/her financial situation simply because you sort out all his/her financial issues.
If your partner is depending on you to buy him/her airtime, give him/her transport money, pay his/her bills or even giving him/her pocket money, it is a clear indication he/she is only with you for financial reasons.
2. He/She is always asking for favours
If you find yourself constantly doing things for your man/woman and he/she doesn't return the favour, chances are you're being used.
You need someone who will go out of his/her way to also make you happy and reciprocate the kind of love and support you show him/her.
In relationships, support is supposed to come from both sides, but if you're the one who's always supporting, giving and compromising, then it's a one-sided relationship.
3. You've never been introduced to his/her family and friends
You should never settle for being swept under the mat by your partner.
If you've been dating for a while and he/she has never bothered to introduce you to his/her family or friends, it means he/she is not taking you seriously and just wasting your time.
A man/woman who truly loves you will take the initiative to introduce you to the most important people in his/her life, and that is, his/her friends and family.
If he/she keeps you a secret, it clearly means you're not a priority in his/her life.
