ORIGINAL: lilsubl my problem is that i love buying clothes...since i stopped trying them on in the store dressing rooms, i like it even more! i was thinking about boxing up the ones my neighbors don't want & finding a shelter to give them to.... & very good point, Aylee about paying our own rent...there were times i didn't know how i would afford it, even back in the days when it was less than $100, but i always handled it...i hate living with other people.... Oh, I do not mind living with other people. I just do not like being DEPENDANT on other people. And as a mature adult, I do not think that I should be dependant on someone else. When I moved out I became a real-grown-up-adult. I did not grocery shop in my parents' pantry, mom did not continue doing my laundry, dad did not do my oil changes, and the ONE time I borrowed money it was repaid in less than a week (it was for college text-books, so I really could not wait). I knew how to budget and how to put off buying something until I could pay for it. So. . . with all that, there was no one that could tell me how to dress or what to buy. They could not tell me what I could eat or not eat. Or what to do. (Exception would be when I was in the military.) It was up to me to sink or swim. And I swam. It sucked sometimes, but that is just another part of life. ***This is not to disparage yours or anyone else's D/s relationship. That is a choice to turn control over, not a necessity because someone else is paying for your upkeep. Two different things.***
