it's been 9 month since i'm working as an office worker, i always use my salary for me and my bf living (his foods, transportation, internet, and our rent room).
It's all because he hasn't find a job, but now he already has a job as a bartender. and it's his 3 month now. he also share his salary with me, and he buy motorcycle for transportation because public transport is damn expensive (he often came home late and no public transport avalaible so he use online bike which is very expensive bcs his work place and house is far)
my salary is US$270/month and his salary is US$200/month. It's enough for our living but not enough to spare some for savings. so we don't have any savings.
today, suddenly my parents wants to borrow money US$335 from me. i told them i dont have that much. there's only US$20 in my wallet now and my payday still 3 days more. and they said they will wait until my payday and still want to borrow every penny.
They said they will give it back in 7 days. but if they borrow all of my money i really dont have anything and my bf also needs to pay his bike, and how about our expenses. i know for some of u might think "life isn't all abt money" but how am i and him going to survive this month. My parents didn't know i'm share cost with my bf.. so i couldnt tell them and explain the situation.
and my bf's parents also never give him money. so what we have is really all we got..

I think it's better u negotiate with your parents and give them half the amount which they asked for and find some other way to cover up the other half.. So that at least u will be left with half of the salary. The second option is to talk woth your bf and try to manage his salary only for one month.. Cut off unnecessary expenses and try to live with minimum expenses until your next pay day comes.. Or else u can borrow some from a friend so that u can repay them little by little.. Hopu u will find a solution soon..
ReplyIf they need the money right away...I don't know. But, please negotiate with them as much as you can. If you can make them wait...or something.
Can't you really explain them your situation...?
