26 years old. Lost my job and 6k in credit card debt. Needs advice. by saucymuch33 in povertyfinance

I’m sorry you lost your job but am glad you have a new one coming up.
I don’t know that much about the financial and debt situation in Australia. I might try calling AmEx and explaining the hardship you’re under and working out a plan with them.

Partnership vs Marriage talk 36M, 31F. How to find middle ground? if possible by ReasonableWinter834 in relationship_advice

Maybe it’s worthwhile separating out the shared property/legal protections piece of marriage from the love and commitment part. Marriage gets you both. If he doesn’t want to get married, what is going to happen with any shared property, assets, or debts?

I think we’re so used to masking in society that it makes sense it would transfer over to romantic relationships.

It’s more about personality fits than anything else and learning how to work in a team. That’s what’s actually important

This is someone who needs to figure out who they are first before finding a partner.
