any newlyweds with financial troubles?

[Brenda]

Nope, but thanks for asking.

times like these are a test for young couples, but the marriage gets stronger if they can stay the course.

Okay, so I'm jumping the gun a little bit, but my fiance and I are getting married saturday.

We are having such a hard time... even without taking the wedding into consideration. We are having to move out of our nice, safe, clean apartment into a small, dirty, one bedroom house in a really unsafe area. Why? The rent is less than half what we're paying here. And they're raising the rent next month.

This month alone, we've had to sell our scooter, furniture, DVDs, television, DVD player, etc... just to make sure that all our bills are going to be paid. Now granted, we're paying rent at two places right now, so next month it should get easier.

Our new house is in a different town, so when we move, there go our jobs. I am not sure what we are going to do if we do not find work right away. We may have to move in with our parents, but that really wouldn't be the end of the world. I could also sell my car, and the last few things we own.

But despite all this, things don't feel all that bad. We don't have much debt between us, just over ten thousand, and I'm happy to know that I'm not going to be alone in all of this. I'll have the love and support of my husband.

Anyhow, I don't know if this is what you're looking for... but I hope it helped! You're not alone.
