My friend wants me to sleep with him for money; it’s tempting
I am looking for your help. I have a baby, I canât find work, my man is not working and is drinking a lot. My mother canât help me because she barely makes ends meet. The only hope is that I have a guy friend who says if I sleep with him, it would be our secret and he would give me money. Rosie, this does not feel right and I havenât given in, but the money is tempting.{{more}}
What to do ?
Dear What to do?
Well you are right about that; never, never compromise your principles by selling your body for money, no matter how bleak your situation is!
This “friendâ knows that you are down and out and is like a wolf that is stalking his prey. Plus this “friendâ is not a genuine friend at all!
I am very sorry that you are having such a rough time. It must be so frustrating to be looking for work, not being able to get assistance from family and also dealing with a partner who is making matters worse by drinking. I think you are at a crossroad that necessitates evaluation of the people around you. Sometimes people can weigh you down when you are trying to better yourself.
Listen, I donât know what type of education you have, but if you can get help from family to take care of the baby, then please try to look into getting a job that ordinarily, you may not have looked at. At this stage, what you need is a decent and steady job. Once you get something, then you can start addressing where you want to go from there. Maybe additional evening classes, learning another skill and also making sure that you can continue to provide for you and your baby by at least saving a little money, every pay cheque, for a rainy day.
So, stay away from that “friend.â He is a wolf in sheepâs clothing!
