well i am too. lol. but the key is to have a reason for buying things. Occasionally, she may want to splurge. That's alright as long as she doesn't do it always. The thing is...Does she have the money? I mean, it depends on if she has the money or not. If not, yeah she has a problem, but if she does, what the hell, go right ahead and shop. But there is a limit. If she doesnt need it, convince her that it will make her space cluttered, and nobody will be able to move!!!!!!! Lol, sit down and tell her that shopping isnt always good, and make sure you tell the truth about whatever you feel. How can a realtionship survive without trust?
BIG IDEA!!!!!
See if there is a problem that she's trying to cover up by shopping and then maybe if you uncover it, you can get her help, and some more money in th bank.
Best of luck sweetie!!!

o man this is a huge problem. shopaholics tend to take out there aggressions on there pocketbooks. this means that when she is happy, sad, bored, or so on she goes out and spends money on things she does not really need. if it has been going on her whole life it is going to be a very hard habit to break her of. if it just recently happened (like if she JUST started shopping all of the time) maybe there is something going on in her life that is making her unhappy. try to figure out what is going on and talk to her about it.
if she has ALWAYS been a shopaholic then there is counseling that she can take. try to look into it though her Dr. office or though a psychiatrist. it REALLY is a problem.

You can't...she is the way she is and likes it.
You can't fix a shopaholic, they are that way for life. Keep this in mind if you are thinking long term. Most divorces are because of money problems. You can only control a shopaholic, and that requires you to have complete control over her access to money. That is "COMPLETE" control, since she is your girlfriend that isn't going to happen.
I would dump her now, she will be drama her whole life. Constant money problems caused by overspending. You really don't want this in your life.

look new child, who the hell is familiar with in case you will nonetheless be together with her in some years anyhow. believe me, maximum junior severe/ severe college relationships do no longer final that long. and a few young ones say they're going to enlist in simple terms so they are in a position to get some mandatory interest from those around them. Is that what you're attempting to do? First you will would desire to attend till you're 17, then you definately would desire to work out in case you are able to pass the ASVAB and actual at MEPS; and by way of seeing the way you form, i'm no longer so particular you are able to pass. yet besides the fact that happens happens. suitable of success to you 3 or 4 years down the line.

Take her out to the movies, and a dinner, and then tell her how much fun dinner was. Then try and make going out to dinner a reoccuring thing, but not the movie. Maybe you could even go shopping with her for clothes (AT YOUR OWN RISK THOUGH)

For starters don't give her money and start making her contriblute to dates and outings. Perhaps she needs to learn the value of a buck. Let her have a few set backs financialy and allow her to learn a lesson from it.

get her family to help you but like with any addiction a lot of people need to hit rock bottom before they admit they lead
help. the important thing is when her bills come in no one enables her and pays her bill.

Woman like shopping. Spoil her and you might get something in return (well, apart from a major crdit card bill!).

you can't fix anyone but, with some luck you can show her that debt from shopping can ruin her life and that you are only intervening because you care so much about her
Good luck :)
