Monthly payments you make to a current and/or ex romantic partner, either because you
knocked up said partner, or to keep him/her quiet about
shameful/potentially-damaging secrets from your
torrid past with him/her.
One would be wise to either maintain a
strictly platonic relationship with any "close" acquaintances, or at least
always use protection during any and all bouncy-bouncies, to avoid excessive "financial drainage" from having to
shell out for love interest.
