    Nobody thinks they own you but surely you can understand why people get peeved off when someone who claims benefits because they are in a wheelchair but is well enough to provide and get paid for caring for their partner but not apparently well enough to work comes onto a forum bemoaning the fact that due to self inflicted debt they can't have a holiday because nobody will give you further credit...

    Maybe employment is the way forward for you and a family member could provide the care your girlfriend needs as I presume it's minimal if you are currently providing it?

    i think you have misunderstood the situation it is me who is in a wheelchair my partner is able bodied and cares for me and our 3 year old son and once he is old enough for fulltime nursery hours she will be going back too work

    oh and i understand it might of peed some people of that i wanted a holiday on credit when receiving benefits but it is not like i just choose not to work like alot of people do today

    It's totally irrelevant what fiends, family or your next door neighbour have paid in taxes, they would of cost the state fair more than they have ever paid in tax especially if they are not higher rate tax payers.

    Nice Freudian slip :)
