[QUOTE="Albatross, post: 701053, member: 17720"] Lil, in my opinion the issue isn't whether or not he loves you or not. He wants you to bail him out. Is that good for him? Is it good for you, and for Jabber? No. He will always need gas money, or grocery money, or pot money, or rent money. The only thing that changes is whether or not he expects you to provide it for him. He will ask you to give it until you stop. Then he will eventually stop asking you, and he will find ways to get it himself. And he will surprise himself by his ability to get it. If you step in he will never get the chance. Lil. C'mon. I value your honesty. I hope you value mine. What would you tell me to do, if my son told me this? [/QUOTE]
