If you're paying rent (probably not a written arrangement) it'd be tough for her to straight kick you out I'd think..Either way shouldn't get yourself into that position in a matter of months.

Sage advice above. These 3 said exactly what I was going to post. SSOOCH is a man of few words and says it best IF love is truly there, but I agree with the other 2 as well. I think it's about more than your car. As junkie says, "give her space" and as cam5 says, "don't settle". Tread carefully and see what happens. Everything will become clear to you in time. Junkie also has it right, there's not many issues in life a good burnout won't make you forget for just a little while! Good luck to you!

You broke up with your girl and got put out of her place...now you have to go home to momma. you gotta be a man bro..once you leave home you arent supposed to go back. This time after you go home regroup get a plan and alwayes..always have your own place...never place yourself at the mercy of a woman...not even your wife because at the end of the day YOU have to depend on you and so does your woman....the right woman that is.
again, i think you are right. i have a good job with decent money. i am saddled with student loans tho. like i said I will only be back at my moms for a little while to get myself back on my feet. i know the car was a bad decision financially but at the time i really didnt see myself getting involved with anyone seriously (i had just gotten out of long relationship) the new gf came along and we hit it off. everything was going great. i prob moved in too soon but then again she new about all my finances before i moved in and it didnt pose a problem until a month later all of a sudden.

So right! Unfortunately, my dog drools to much for me to even think of letting him in my Camaro!

Many years ago the woman of my dreams basically kicked me to the curb because she felt my "priorities" were not where they should be. She wanted me to find a better job, get a better place to live and buy a better car and so on. Well, I sold my '67 Camaro and bought a Beretta GT. I found a better job that paid better and moved into my own apartment. A few months later we were done. I had made all these changes and in the end it didn't matter. Granted my life was better and started me moving in the right direction career wise. But... no matter what I did, she still left.

Many years later I have a great job, a wife and daughter who I love dearly, and a comfortable home to call my own. The "woman of my dreams" is not a part of this life that I have now and I don't miss her one bit.

In my case, I'm thankful that God didn't grant my prayers to get her back.

Time will tell how your story unfolds. I wish you luck.

sounds like you are a lucky guy.

sorry to say it is hard to see that as a possibility for me right now. im 26 years old with nothing but failed relationships. i have a decent job but am saddled with student loan debt. i got the car thinking at least this will make me happy, which it did and still does but i know deep down that it was also not a good choice for me at this point in my life. its just really hard for me to see a time when i will be in a happy life.

That is almost verbatim to what happened to me, other than I didn't have the Camaro. I'm married 17yrs now and have two awesome kids. I have a woman who loves me for me. You can't ask for better than that.

I am very thankful for the life I have now.

I was 22 when this went down. Several failed relationships also. I know it's hard to see because of what is going on right now but trust me... things will improve. I didn't believe people when they told me this way back then. But they were right.

You can make the changes you need to get yourself on a good track. If you feel the car was a bad idea then sell it. Junkie is dead on, man. Get a place to live first that you can afford comfortably. THEN go get a car and make sure you buy within your means. If you can feel good about signing the papers, even deep down, then you're golden. I know this sounds kind of corny, but everything WILL fall into place in time. You just have to believe.

Oh, not like it really matters, but I'm 43 now. I was 33 when I met my wife to be. You have time, Boz.

granted its not an ultimatum by the woman but rather i guess a choice of which you can afford. I know that sounds kinda wrong or wierd but having such a high car payment is straining my relationship.

we got into a huge fight tonight. needless to say i was pretty much kicked out...
Not to anger the fanboys, but the Camaro is just a car.

Just... A... Car...




It's not even an exotic car. Its a car you can rent and beat to shit from Avis.
