Well when you say debt problems like how deep is he in debt?
He’s asking for money
Okay that’s not good.
Dose he work at least.
Yes he does
How long have you been seeing him?
Over two years
That not met a guy that’s you have a boyfriend.
Okay how much did he ask for?
$160
Will he pay you back in a timely manner, or do you trust him to?
He owes a few people money
So that’s a no.
What is he spending all this money on?
His bills
Okay so how much does he have left to pay?
I gave him $300 already
I feel at this point he needs a better paying job, and should get to working on that soon.
Realistically right now I feel he’s taken advantage enough of those in his life, and most of all you.
Do you want to remain with him?
Yes i do
Don't give him anymore money. If he's not doing anything to get out of debt with his own money he's not going to do it with your money. You're down $300... cut that loss now before it becomes greater.
How'd you know she was down $300?
It’s in the comments i gave him $300 already
Teach me to post w/o looking through the whole thread... lol
(I'll go look that up and respond there)
No in the long term it won't be substantiable in the long run. Imagine when it comes to buying a house and you can't do it because his credit
Well you probably aren't going to be taken out to eat much or bought gifts.
If that kind of stuff matters to you.
No, I think guy who doesn't care about his debts is irresponsible.
Not only does he sound driven, but you will also get to pay for all dates.
Go for it, he's a winner👍
If he treats you right and cares about you and you do the same for him then I’d say go for it girl!
Though I do believe he should really step up his game and do something about this
What if he’s asking me for money
Especially if he truly does care about you
If you don’t want to then say no. So far, it sounds like he’s refusing to take responsibility
Sounds like a scammer tbh
I dated a guy that was jobless, homeless and had baggage. Dont do is sister
Sure. Date him.
Don't bring your wallet.
Don't bail him out.
Yes! Good response don't disregard him because he's not perfect but don't let him suck you In either give home a chance!
If he's not doing anything about it, WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU.
Are you stupid?
Sure, that way you can pay for all the debts and make his car payments.
Why do I get the feeling you're being sarcastic?
@Jamie05rhs No idea.
Haha
Almost everybody has debt to some degree, it depends on if he is financially fluid enough to survive or not.
That's not a good idea unless you're willing to support him on the condition he gets his shit together. Seeing as you don't know the guy, why would you? Really depends on your brand of optimism.
the real question is do u want to be with someone rich but he treats u like shit or someone poor but does his best to treat u as a queen ur call
What if he asks for money?
well depends on how much money cause u both are gonna have to pay something eventually and just ask him to pay it back
If you're young. Date him but expect that he grows up before you become serious
No. If he has debt now and is not making any progress to reduce it or correct his spending habits now, imagine how it will continue to be or how much worse it will get. Get out now.
I already gave him $300
You will probably never get that money back. Please do not lend him more money. Cut him loose. I know you might really like him, but someone who is financially irresponsible is only going to drag you down too. Do not get a joint account with this guy.
Yeah, don't give your partner money. Make them earn their own money. Your relationship should be about love, not about how you can use the other person.
There's no reason not to be involved with someone due to their financial status. Just make sure you keep your own finances out of the relationship until he is stable!
What if he’s asking for money
Just say no and play it as you want. Full on truth (handle your own shit I'm not a bank) or just tell him that you can't afford to lend him money at that time. His reaction/post behaviour would tell you all you need to know
Being in a relationship doesn't mean he has any special privileges when it comes to your money. Tell him no, and leave it at that.
It depends. Sometimes people get into debt through no negligent action. The problem here is that he is doing nothing to get out of debt.
If he has no plan on how to fix his situation then leave. If he does and it's a good one stay.
What if he asks for money
To pay his bills?
Does he has a job? Or thinks about having one?
To pay his bills?
The fact you have to go to the internet to answer that shows you do not possess the ability to make good life choices so when you decide do the exact opposit.
