**NightRabbit** , sounds like you got a good man. It’s good that you have someone supporting your (emotionally). My gf understands I’m broke and helps me out here and there. But like you, I hate the feeling of having others support me. I’d rather fix my own problems than rely on someone to keep my head above water. ---
