Smudgey, I'm not trying to pour cold water on you but this thing
happened to one of my friend:-
Her boyfriend (setting his own business) needs money frequently to
settle bils. Sometimes $500, $1000, $2000 etc. Overall she has
"lend" her bf more than $10,000. Now they broke off any the
monies....gone with the wind.
Somtimes when comes to money, its better to draw a clear line cause
you are only in the "bf/gf" stage.
But if you are determine to lend it to him, be prepared not to have
the money back.
