Now today's first story comes from Alexis Drake 1354 and says my female 22,

boyfriend, male 26, asked me for $1,500 to buy a Halloween costume. Me, female 22, and my boyfriend

male 26 have been together for around four years. I recently was asked by him if he could get a personal

loan under my name so that he could buy a Halloween costume. I'm feeling a bit unsure of how

upset I should be or if I even should be upset about it. To explain his current situation,

he currently has around $5,000 worth of debt and does not have a job and lives off of payments

from the government currently. When he originally asked, I got quite upset since for the last year,

his financial situation has continued to get worse, as I currently pay for his groceries and

essentials, and without aid doesn't have basic essentials like toilet paper or soap, let alone food,

and can only meet the payments of his rent at the moment. When he asked me for the loan, it was about $1,500, and he wanted

to have me open a personal loan, since no financial lenders would give him any more money than he

currently has it on loan. I don't know why I felt like it was my breaking point, but I'd just

cried and told him he was

childish for asking me for money to buy something so stupid and I haven't spoken to him for the last

couple of days. He asked me for money when he already relies on me to buy his groceries and is in so

much debt from buying video games and action figures. I'm struggling to figure out what even to do or say to him.

The reason he wants to loan so much from me is for more of the same non-essential things that got

him into debt in the first place. A custom-made Halloween costume seems like an outrageous thing

to want to purchase in his current situation. But he doesn't see it as a big deal, since in his words, it's not a lot of money for you.
