Can I Fix This?

The great thing about this debt malarky is that there is no right or wrong.
Everyone is different. It's only right, if it's right for you.
All of us could make more scarifices to pay our debt off. But you have to decide from what you want out of life and this journey.
Remember that you're not a prisoner to your debt. You can't punish yourself forever. You are rectifying your mistakes. But it doesn't mean you can't live life at the same time.
I hope this has totally confused you. I haven't even been drinking.0 -

You did not come in for your magners.I think I understand some of what you are saying to me but I am not sure and I am not going to totally embarass myself by getting it totally wrong so I will just be confused.

What I'm saying is you haven't done anything wrong getting into debt. You don't have to punish yourself by sacrificing everything.0 -

Anyway, maybe somebody else will stumble across the maths and do it.
They are an acquired taste. Certainly nowhere for the new chubbier variety of Brit that the papers tell us are taking over! But I am lucky. Bordering on midget

ut I did do something really wrong and totally unforgiveable and that is what got me into debt and I suppose that in a way I am using repaying it as a way to make myself pay for other things.Debt August 2007 - £38,204.58 - Completely Debt Free - May 2008 - Now Proudly Saving.DFW Nerd Number 684 - Proud To Have Dealt With My Debts:heartpuls Very Proud Aunty Ciara :heartpuls0 -
