“他害怕被欺騙”的借口
Dear Greg, My boyfriend is fairly rich—not Donald Trump, but he has family money, and he's asuccessful businessman on his own.
親愛(ài)的格雷格，我的男票十分有錢(qián)——不是說(shuō)跟唐納德·特朗普一樣有錢(qián)，但是他有家族資金，自己也是個(gè)成功的商業(yè)人士。

But he must know I'm different. I know having money must be weird, so I'm trying to beunderstanding.
但是他一定知道我是特別的。我知道有錢(qián)會(huì)怪怪的，但是我會(huì)試著去理解。
Can the fear of being taken advantage of really be that strong?
被利用的恐懼真的可以那么強(qiáng)烈嗎?
Or should we start suspecting he might not be that into me?
或者我們應(yīng)該開(kāi)始懷疑他只沒(méi)那么喜歡我?
