has anyone felt like crying?

Question

i feel so bad emotionally and financially. i just got paid and most of my money has to go towards my car insurance. i have to pay for my rent also and i have until monday before it's considered late. i have so many things to feel so torn about. my boyfriend always tell me to be thankful for what i have. because so many others are less fortunate. i understand that and i am grateful for what i have, but to feel like i only work to pay bills is not a good feeling. i have no one to really go to and ask for any help. my mother is deceased and i don't have her here to lean on. my father, well, he has no part in my life, but i do keep in touch with his side of the family. i asked my grandmother to help me, but i haven't got a response from her yet. i can't get help from the government because they say i make too much and even with my boyfriend's income. i explained to her how we pay for bills and we are unable to have money left to even buy food as we would like. i feel like crying.

i just think it's unfair and wish there were something i could do. would everyone please pray for me?

Sometimes life give people bad turns. All we can do is try to learn from and understand what is happening and why it is happening. Just remember that with some time things will get better. They always do. It sounds like you are in a hole. Just dig yourself out of it. When you do, you can look back and see what you came through and then you will be able to use what you have learned to encourage someone else.

Trust me...I am going through something very difficult right now, but I know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Sometimes I get very sad and angry and all that, but I am just trying to tunnel my through with the hopes that things will get better. I believe they will.

You have my prayers and know that you aren't alone. I have had some financial setbacks , lost my family relationship, most of my possessions, a good paying job, and my savings is dwindling away because I am about 600 short a month. I live in bad neighborhood , eat cheap food, can't use my ac in the 100 degree heat, and have no life really and can't find a boyfriend. I know about the check going all for bills, but mine doesn't even cover that. My work hours are spread out so that I am tied up most eveings and weekends but when it all adds up I barely get 25 hours but I have to stay an hour later at work to ride home with someone or I can waste money on a taxi.

I have major credit card debt because after all I was stable for 8 years and then it all fell apart. I have no real friends either as I soon found out. People say to be greatful because there are people worse off than us, but hay if you can't pay your rent, you really can't think of the bright side because there isn't one

Screw your boyfriend! Other people's misery is not going to fix your problem or make you feel better.

Sweetheart, never cry over money. It's a temporary setback. You'll get a better job, and have more money than you know what to do with.

Here are some money saving tips:

Get a lower priced insurance. Try Geico. Get a higher ($1,000) deductible.

Use coupons and buy generic everything (except for condoms).

For things that you have in the house now, call the toll free numbers and complain about the product. Make something up. They will send you several free coupons.

Answer 4

I am sorry about your situation. Sometimes I also feel like crying. I am quite stressed out myself about a lot of things. I am about to start my senior year of high school, and after that I am going to college. I can't even get a job, so there at least you have one. I have put in applications already, and no one has hired me yet... My boyfriend makes me cry sometimes, and just different family situations. I hope your situation gets better. Good luck with it. Don't give up on making your life better.
