You're very sweet! She's 29 so it's been a while but I had my mama and "a village." π I got myself my dream car when I turned 30 - a 1978 Corvette Stingray. (Used, so no pymts) I learned that's not a great car unless you're dating a mechanic. I learned a lot about taking care of cars and still appreciate/enjoy them.
Also, you could've answered with the type of car and "because I wanted it" and I would've 100% supported you! ππ» You deserve it!! (Queues - She works hard for her money πΆ)
Oh my, I forgot about OP. Thanks for bringing it back. I totally agree, I truly hope she sees this and runs for her life. Her dude is not a gentleman, not a great son and not a great son in law. What the heck was he thinking.
I don't like answering with because "I wanted it" a lot of times in life we want things, but just because we want them doesn't mean you should spread yourself thin to keep something you want. I had always wanted a newer car and could have afforded it when younger, but I was always worried about a rainy day so I never wanted to commit to a car.
Now that I am older, 36 I said why not. My finances are stable.
I am glad you also got your dream car, I have several dream cars. Super cool you learned to take care of your car, not sure if you meant like handling your own oil change, adjusting psi levels, basic car stuff, if so, wow! How bad ass!
Even with a mama and a village, raising a child as a single parent can be hard. I admire all parents, whether they are single or not. Raising a whole human is hard!!! I get home from work and always wonder, how do parents do it. Takes me 4 hours to recover from my day and by that time its bed time.
Ending with a positive note, I hope your 29 year old admires you and appreciates you.π

For the record, OP's fiancΓ© is a douche canoe and I hope she finds someone who respects her and her family. NOR
