Being broke and having a girlfriend


Recommended Posts

Hello guys, if I turned broke, should I tell my GF(3 month)

That I wont be able to actually date her for the next 2 month ?

If she loves as she says I think she can be patient for a while without going to places... But hey, if she doesnt want to have a broke boyfriend I can understand that.

 

No money even for fuel, f*k my life.

You should talk to her about finances. If you don't even have enough money for gas, that is pretty broke. You don't have to give up on her. If she can get to you, you two can still go for walks, play board games, lay in the sun etc. Disappearing on her for several months will add unnecessary strain to your relationship.

 

 

Meanwhile what are you doing to get a new job?

I have a job with salary above average, but I wasted way over my income, so wasted money + education loan got me in position that I owe to the bank.

I just kept wasting for few month like a stupid now got to suck my finger.

What you need is a budget. Sit down figure out where / how you spend your money & then where you can cut.

 

 

Tell your GF you have a cash flow problem right now & can't spend money.

 

 

Find things in your house you can sell. Go to sites like Task Rabbit & sign up to provide services to other for some quick cash. Become an Uber driver There are things you can do to fix your cash flow problem if you want to.

3 months isn't long. This will be a good test. I'd talk to her & see what she says. Don't borrow money from her or let her pay for everything while you're broke. How much have you spent on her per week or month on ave before you went bust? Can you get a personal loan from family to cover close (2/3rds) to that amount?

Just tell her. I'm curious why you think there's an end in sight, but if you're sure, then if she's not just a golddigger, she'll hang in there. I would recommend if you don't even have gas money, you at least mow a lawn or two for that. Or sell blood.
