Print this out too long to remember:

First of all I say you were a little lucky in life, but look where it got you so you wasn't that lucky, so now what you need to do is get a job, if you dont have one already, dont worry about it being a great job, hell your not used to having a lot of responsiblity anyways, so next you open an account all by yourself, and dont spend your money on stupid things the first six months of your working, only pay for bills, and emproving your credit.see your lucky you get to start fresh, so make this stuff work, then only buy things you need with your money, first you must think of food, shelter, and phone, lights, car payment (if you dont have a car already), then only allow yourself $50.00 of you own money for fun per pay week, if you get treated by boyfriend thats ok thats what he needs to be doing. Then once you get the hang of supporting yourself then other things to come, ok, now food for one person a month will run you $100-$180 a month ok you need to shop for the basics always when shopping, ok here they are:
buy family packs of meat (get small little baggies and separte them to fit your intake size, like four pork chops to a bag,etc.), rice, mac and cheese, milk, hot cereal, eggs, butter, seasonings, bread, lunch meat, veggies (half can, and few fresh), bag of beans, p &jelly, tuna, mayo, spagetti, cornflakes, flour (small bag), cooking oil, bacon, and juice. this should be what you buy always when you go grocery shopping if you have extra then buy your soup, snack,etc. always shop monthly, it will save you money, and save the money from both checks and shop at end or begining of every month, never loose rotation. Then go to a cooking class, make sure its free or low cost, google one in your area.now your eating and working (be on time, I myself is bad with that), now you need to know a rule with bills, never half pay a bill you will get behind fast if your not used to being responsible, then take some self empowerment classes, or Karate, you need inner strength, and tell your boyfriend to tell you no on little things to help you out, but still be there for you, if he love you and want you to be independant then he will say no to the little things, and on the basic you already should know your basic include your woman needs(maxi, douches, toothpaste, hair products, etc.), good luck, and God Bless.

The only thing that sticks out to me is that you would starve if he didn't feed you--that to me sounds more like lazy not dumb. As for learning, what exactly are wanting to learn? If it is to cook then it really isn't all that hard to learn. Grab an easy cookbook and follow the directions. Start with simple things and work your way up, it is amazing how proud you will feel when you accomplish something for yourself.

I taught myself how to cook and I always love the feeling when someone trys something I have made and they really enjoy it.

just try! if it goes wrong then whoops, never mind, you will learn from it, mistakes are good in that way! you can do anything but you arent giving yourself a chance to learn and its unfair that you are relyiong on others to do stuff for you. You are a strong person who is very capable, your just a bit scared. take the plunge and just see what happens, then see how you can do it better the next time, until ytou can do everything with no problem! Good luck! xxx

You can get off your lazy ***?

If you are hungry, get up and make something, if you don't know how to cook, ask someone to TEACH YOU.

There is no excuse for not learning how to do things for yourself- so again, get off your butt and start learning how to do things for yourself- ask for help, but LEARN how to do it so next time you need it you can do it on your own.

Can't? or won't? If you're not psychically disabled then you have no excuse. Just try to learn how to cook, just start with something simple like ramen noodles. all you have to do is boil water. Ask your boyfriend to teach you.
