My bf goes to school full time and works half time, but his place of employment has been cutting his hours quite a bit. He has no car.
He lives an hour away from school and relies on his friend to go to school.
His friend is moving in two weeks.
He replies on his mom's car to get to work, which is 20 minutes away.
His mom is moving in 2 months.
His parents won't help him with a car.
He will have no place to stay and no place to go.
I'm not going to buy him a car, and he is not moving in with me, at least not as my bf.
What would you do in this situation for your GF or BF of 3 months and 6 days?
I don't know what to do.
If you don't feel close enough to do the move in thing, then you're in kind of a tight spot and it will probably put an increased strain on your relationship.
Sounds like he is working part time to get by and going to school. He is now going to get to use public transportation, which will depend on where you are, or he can ride a bike or he is going to have to reduce his school load and work more so that he can afford what he needs to.
He's in a bad situation, and he's going to remember it if you don't help him out. Do your best to be supportive and find a solution. It depends a lot on the particulars but I think the best bet is for him to move closer to school and maybe find a job closer by. It is possible to get by without a car but you have to limit your range of motion somewhat.
I'd say be honest with him about why you don't want him to move in, if he is asking to. Could you loan him the money for a car? The downside to this is it also comes with upkeep costs and if he is barely keeping his head above water this will be a bad move. Does he currently live with mother, since he is using her car?
