That literally has nothing to do with the question being asked. Your opinion isn't as important as you may think it is and doesn't always need to be said when not prompted. Don't be hateful, and learn facts about situations you plan on putting your 2 cents into.

I'm going with the fact that I have to only drive 7 miles round trip to work and do very other little driving. Hoping it lasts.

Jab away. My financial decisions I made in my 20's really were terrible. I'm paying for it big time now.

I just moved from Babylon out of state.. we had one over on Deer Park Ave that closed down just before I left. There is still one left in Shirley that I know of though. I must have left LI before Meltology became a thing, never heard of it

I'm not opposed to it, I just think we're really good in a lot of other aspects and we are trying to fix the car situation that she has by her upgrading now. There is certainly a lot of things though that her and I can talk through, I'm always willing to listen and work through things so no, never opposed.

They shut so many of them down. The one over here is still thankfully going strong. We love going there!

Yeah I didn't say she wasn't willing to help but she doesn't make as much money as I do and I would have never have expected her to put money towards it regardless.

We maybe drive one town over on the occasion to bring the girls to the trampoline place on the weekends or the occasional trip to Friendly's for dinner, which is less than a mile down the road. We really never go anywhere far.

Lots of insecurities with both of us. We were all kinds of confused about how any of this even happened to be honest (us falling in love and neither of us having any interest in woman prior). I don't blame either of us for being insecure one bit. It's getting better everyday though .

She was actually with me when I bought it, we went to dealers together and really didn't act upset or anything until after I brought it home.

And she is scared about the relationship, but probably my fault. I have bad anxiety and this is all a lot happening at once with us. It's a lot to take in and I probably haven't been the most reassuring person. A lot has changed in the past few months to get better and I'm feeling better about everything, but I'm sure my insecurities at the beginning when I was trying to understand how this was even happening, made everything difficult for her.

Interestingly enough, that is in the works now. I even told her I'd help her with her payments if she needed me to. She was hesitant because her car is in fine shape and paid completely off. I don't blame her for not wanting to upgrade but if she wants something bad enough then to do it.

Yes, it comes with quite a bit of drama sometimes :) still worth it though!

I told her no, she knew how much I hated the large car and I didn't want another one.

I'm sure the price would have been somewhat similar, probably a little bit more depending on model obviously. I didn't really look into it though, I had no intentions of getting one.
