Higgs Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Our relationship is great! I love this woman and I want to keep her. But I have this crazy thought that hardship is going to cause my to be put somewhere away from her... I dont know if im just being overly scared. But heres my situation... I had a good job last year when I moved out of my parents home... Ive been with them too damned long. I lived a shelter life. I was well off financially. I figured even if I have troubles ill have plenty of breathing room. Problem is... I lost that job. Now im working for barely above minimum wage for the last 5 or 6 months. Starting to over use credit cards to make up for what I dont got. Had my bank account over drawn once... and its probably going to happen again because I just got pulled over!!! WTF!!! I hate cops, they do NOT protect me... Anyway... theres another 140 bucks I cant afford to pay. My car payments are way to high... And you get the idea. Pretty soon Im just not going to be able to pay for anything. Hell with money... My girlfriend agrees. But.. What could happen to me if I cant sustain myself? She would go to a homeless shelter with me if it came to that. But all the unknowns make me feel as if we could get seperated somehow against our will. I will have a decent job again within a few weeks though. But my bank account is going to be overdrawn a second time before that. Makes me really hate the law and police.. Has being too poor ever caused unwillful seperation??
Mister Zen Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Sounds like you have much bigger problems than worrying about some woman. Get your life together first. Put all your energy into getting your job situation fixed. The girl will understand if she really cares about you. If she abandons you because you are trying to get your life together... then screw her. Its better to have a job and no woman than be homeless with no woman. 1
whichwayisup Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Why did you get pulled over? Driving too fast? Sorry, don't blame that on a traffic cop who's just doing his job. Anyway, make a plan, save some money and be wise about spending your money. Spend only on stuff you actually need, not stuff you want. Start looking for a better paying job. If you and your gf are living together, she will have to carry the load a bit more until you find a higher paying job. That's what couples do, support each other through hard times in life. You're going through something now and hopefully she sticks around.
