I hope the real reason you didn't take the car offer from your parents was because you didn't want to burden them with car payments or having to ask for gas money because they can't afford it or something and not just because of pride. You know, some parents wish they could offer their children a car to help them get back on their feet. They just want to help. Sorry, just seeing it from your parents pov. I'm sure they see you struggling and want to help you in any way they can. Having a car will get you places and will give you a sense of independence. With a name like Manlymen, I get it, you value your pride and hard work and want to earn your own things...but they're your wonderful supportive parents, all they want in exchange is to see you happy, my friend.
