I think she was more concerned about his financial status than his passion. It is better to not be in a relationship whom you are not satisfied with.
I didn't get at uu that you are a teacher though I came accross a couple of post that showed your reflection on teaching profession but I didn't get it is the profession you are in @davidbright .
Have a blessed journey 😊
This is the main problem we are having.. Had it been teachers are being paid very well, she wouldnt have left him... I pray she learns her lesson the hard way since she is more interested in his financial status than his passion...
Stay safe
I think both of them found their way.
