OP, she has some need that is satisfied with the money that the person gave to her. It sounds like this need is very profound need associated with the attachment with this person or some internal need to have something that is "hers." Perhaps she wants to think for some time about the possible uses for the money. Perhaps she will reveal these possible uses after some time. I doubt at that point you will be left out of the equation.

Om Brzee Namaha.
