This reminds me of an ex-neighbor. Every time he saw me outside doing stuff around the house he would come over and ask for advice about his "relationship". The two of them weren't married, she had kids and she definitely carried his jewels in her purse. She would (according to him) incite her kids to make fun of him for being overweight, ugly, etc and then join in. They had the same issues about money. I told him to move out of there and get on with your life...you're being abused. But he never did, so I finally told him to stop asking for advice if he wasn't going to follow it. The dude was seriously codependent.
