I think most of my problems stemmed from insecurity; a feeling that I had to go out of my way to make people like me, and one of the painful symptoms was footing the bill everytime I ate out with friends. Now, I have stopped doing this, and I dont feel bad about it. I think all those dutch treats at college with a bunch of accepting friends did it

YEAH, I DID IT!!
15 months ago
It was really satisfying getting out of debt; a peace of mind so I could sleep at night. It helped me be myself again, you know, not feeling burdened down by people you are indebted to, feeling obligated to agree with their choices or opinions etc. to avoid displeasure. I know it might sound strange, but it is hard to disagree with people you are obligated to, and i am glad to be free again. Now, I never borrow money unless it is like really really urgent, and I am sure that I can pay it back really really soon (Like a couple of days or a week at max). BEst of luck to you, if you are trying to do this.
