5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

I have an anecdote about this very subject.
My ex tried to get back together with me after a 2.5 year on/off relationship where there was no intimacy and I'm pretty sure she had no intentions of ever putting out. The reason I didn't trust her was that she straight-up ghosted me and cut me out of my life twice before, and the last time we broke up, I had the choice of either salvaging a vacation to Santorini into a five day solo trip or end up £1k out of pocket.
I was kind to her, I listened to her, I agreed to meet with her for a meal. We talked as if we didn't have a two year absence hanging between us.
When it came time to pay the bill, I insisted we split it. Her face immediately dropped and the whole mood changed.
She blocked me afterwards.
Eww
Who the hell does that?
