I'm p!ssed off aswell coz I've got loads of stuff to pay for aswell, and although I've got the money for it, it means I can't really overpay on the loan! :doh:
And my 2 year lightbulb anniversary was last Wednesday and I forgot about it! :rolleyes:

and don't worry too much about other people, everyone is responsible for their own decisions in life, i'm sure you don't really blame your debt on anyone else so why should she blame her situation on you? (unless you held a gun to her head...
you didn't, did you ? :eek:)
I hope you looked for cashback through Quidco?
Of course I don't blame my debt on anyone else. I just think if I'd said something then a whole lot of things would be different. I'm just feeling sorry for myself I think!0 -

You haven't suffered a setback hun, you just need to turn this around to a positive. Has the person got themselves organised with their debts? Can you offer any help or advice from the masses of tips you have picked up along the way? That might make you feel better.
Oh, and just one more thing to console yourself with, most adults are in debt to some extent because that is the kind of world we live in. No one else is in control of that. This person may well have got into debt regardless of you. You can't take responsibility for that.
Give yourself a new goal to aim for to take your mind off things and remotivate yourself xxx
Yeah she's gone with Payplan on a DMP. I've advised her some stuff and put her mind at rest. She's coping with better than I am! :rotfl: :rolleyes:
I think maybe it was the shock! She owes alot more than me and earns very little! :undecided0 -
