Another time my computer died and I ask Alan how I would get it fixed. He sent a repair tech out to fix the computer and when I tried to pay the tech, he said Alan had prepaid him for the service call.
My friends tell me I have to stop asking Alan for help if I ever expect to live on my on. I think that is probably true especially if he gets married again. However it is hard to get a loan from a commercial source and so easy to just call Alan and he will solve my problem no matter what the problem is.
How do I stop my self from taking the easy way out and calling Alan when I have a financial problem?
ALL ADVICE WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
If that happen'd the person shud make sure they've got money in savings or a credit card. Don't take out a loan. Live within ur means or get a better job so there's more money. Support urself.
It's great that you and your ex are on such great terms that you can just ask him for money and he'll give it to you. Maybe you should tell him exactly the way you told us that you think you shouldn't rely on him so much, and especially this would be difficult for him if he ever got remarried. If he says he's okay with it, then just accept it for what it is right now, some assistance.
set aside an account for saving for extra repairs/emergencies and use that instead of Alan
This is not fair to Alan. He may feel that he has a chance you will reunite with him.
Dont ask him for anymore money.
get credit on your own. get a 2nd job
