    HOw do I get money I spent from my ex boyfriend of 6 years?
    HI,

    I spent the last 6 years of my life with my ex, and I spent more than 60K on him during the years. I paid for almost all of his living expenses by cash, when he was short, I gave him cash, when we went shopping, I paid for everything as well. I even paid for the cruise vacation we took together, which was at least 1K. Unfortunately I do not hold any written agreement, is there any chance I could get the money I wasted on him back?

    :(

    Hello uni:

    I don't think so. The court would help you get back loans, but these weren't loans, were they? He should pay you back if he were a gentleman, but he's not legally bound to.

    Nope. Sorry but you're SOL, as they say. Being disappointed by a love interest doesn't entitle you to any damages and doesn't obligate the other party to pay.

    Also this would be classed as a gift and as such unrecoverable.

    Sorry, things given to a boy or girl friend is considered a gift. I am sure at the time you were giving, you had no desire to get the money back.
