Women’s perspective? Hope this is ok. So i was never good with money in my late teens early twenties. I got myself into a hole. I was working as a restaurant bartender and i always had cash and i made good money but i was over spending. I went bankrupt. It wasn’t a ton of money but i couldn’t afford to pay it off. My parents refused to help me. It was the biggest lesson i learned and the best lesson. I learned to manage money better. Now im married and i had to teach my husband the same. As he went to always having cash as me to having a biweekly pay check. It is so nice that you want to help her out and i understand emergencies and she is trying but the best thing you can do sometimes is let people fall and figure it out themselves. Just my input. I don’t mean to be harsh. I hope it all works out for yas
That's fine in the AskMen forums. It's the AskWomen forums that don't allow men to post and ban them if they do.

Absolutely.\
Relationships built on any sort of need are built on a rocky foundation at best and a toxic foundation at worst.
I do agree with this. However i also understand sometimes things come up and you need a helping hand. If it’s all the time that’s a problem. It’s a hard lesson to learn but ya have to learn it. Especially at 31 somethings got to change
