Only if you will never get bored of paying for him, maybe down the road he can talk you into co signing a car or something then he can ruin your credit to!!
If he doesn’t have a job, do not date him. He will expect you to provide for him all of the time.
Consider additional issues
I have the opposite problem.
As a Male you don't have to supply everything but he should be able to at least handle himself before attempting to get in a relationship because he has to pick up certain roles to comfort you as his partner
If he's not really doing anything to fix it and is asking you for money, I'd steer clear of that.
Depents if you really love him, if he has big money problems, leave him. If small problems and you like him, see if you can help him, not with money but get him earn better/more.
What if he ask for money
Give him lecture first see if he can change
If he doesn't change then he doesn't love you enough to change
Then move on... that the only option
Lectures don't work on poor people. They hear it (psychologically) all day long, every day, from every possible source of information... I mean, if you want to blend in with the background static, by all means, chime right in...
If she make him choose between her or this?
You lost me. Between her or static? That's an easy one. He'd choose her, but resent the choice subconsciously because it was forced under duress. Ideally, he would choose her regardless of what she says about money (yea or nay), and say something like, "Wow, this is really cool! How do WE want to spend it?"
So what you saying is even if he choose her
He will follow his bad debt?
Umm... 😅 I'm an American, so I'm unfamiliar with the concepts that don't involve bad debt *following you* around like the plague, which is why everyone's supposed to be trained to avoid it.
(But it's like dodgeball, having a bank account or jail time; you can be sitting in the bleachers, riding shotgun or as a benchwarmer and still get nailed by it.)
Usually the only times debts and relationships get tangled are when people get legally married, or cosign on a loan or something for relatives, or in estate proceedings (which are by far the ugliest part of a bandsaw economy/"efficiency" legal environment)
(As far as I know; I'm not in finance, and I only know what I hear from [usually the drunk & despondent, tbh] the "'folks around town", but compounded over a few cycles)
Ohhhh
If you love a man, then you would love him whether he is rich or poor. Money should never factor in how much you love somebody.
He needs to have a plan, though. You can't be with someone who is perpetually in debt.
Lol. ok.
You shouldn't date PERIOD until you've read 'SEX AT DAWN' by Cacilda Jetha and Christopher Ryan.
Better with money problems, than with more problems.
Yes.. Depneds on what he did with it.. Some men arnt scumbags...
I have my boyfriend $300 for his rent
Not a problem.. What were your boundaries?
He also asked me to take a loan out for him
Dont do it...
Its all about give and take... What has he done with the 300..
Paid his rent
What are you his cash cow.. Lol.. I can take his loan from you invest and get better return.. Just confront no loan unless it goes to were you say.. Think about what you are posting..
I thought i was helping him out
You were, its your cash, and your life.. Relationships are built upon end results.. Thinks as you post..
So what’s the problem?
Nothing its your cash $$$ Do as you wish..
I think that the debt is not the problem here but that he is not fixing it
He’s not fixing it
Maybe you can talk to him and understand him more
I already gave him $300
Wait what? You have him money? Why would you do that?
Because he needed it
I don't think you should give money to him
If he is not fixing it
don't give money to him
He should also try to fix it himself
Big red light of no. He will drag you down and mooch off of you
He already asked for a loan of $160
Hopefully you didn't give him it. He needs to work on it himself without being codependent on anyone
I gave him $300 dollars last month🤦🏼♀️
Don't expect to ever see that money again
🤦🏼♀️
Unfortunately, that's a lifelong habit. Just realize that you'll be dealing with his bad financial habits as long as you are with him.
Depends what are you looking for money or love? If its money you seek then of course not he's clearly in a bad place if its love you seek then what the hell does money even matter?
I personally wouldn’t. I dated a guy who was very financially unstable and I ended up providing for him and lend him money which he never returned back till this day.
If you pick guys for financial reasons then definitely not. If you don't then still probably not xD
No because he gon keep asking you for money. He need his own shit
No. You shouldn't date him. Because Money problems will always cause tension between you two. You'll regret it later.
Nope. You must not value yourself much if you would date a man like that.
