Dear Annie: I met a man about four years ago. We started going out at his insistence a week after we met. Well, after a year together, I found out that he had been texting a girl online for several months. She didn’t want him. Then, a month later, I heard that he had cheated on me from work with someone in her early twenties, the same age as his daughter. I confronted him, but he refused to admit his guilt. However, I’ve since caught him exchanging sexual messages with a few other girls online. He says that he has never come into contact with them personally.
I think my question for you is, is it worth trying to keep this man in my life? I love him and he says he loves me, but part of me doesn’t love him anymore. To be honest, I’ve been feeling this way ever since I heard about his cheating on this young woman. What do you mean Annie, should I put him on the curb on Garbage Day? My heart tells me to stay, but my mind wants me to tell him to get lost. – Confused girlfriend
Dear confused: In this case, listen to your opinion. Not only has he cheated on you more than once (the racy news counts as a scam), but he hasn’t shown any interest in your getting it right. Life is short and your time is too precious to waste with someone who doesn’t appreciate it. While it may feel hard to live without him at first, at some point you will look back and wonder how you lived with him for so long.

Dear Annie: I’m a high school graduate and I’m having financial problems right now. I’m planning on going to community college, but I would still have to pay $ 2,000 out of pocket because for some reason they are having trouble displaying my free federal student grant application.
I am very overwhelmed and do not even know what to do now. If I take a break from school for a year to work and save money, I will find it very difficult to adapt to a student’s lifestyle. If I don’t, I’ll have to take out a loan and I don’t even know if I can afford to pay it back. I have five children to look after (my little siblings). Is there some kind of solution to this? I know that when I am stressed and overwhelmed, it is very difficult for me to find obvious answers to my problems, and I tend to think too much. I just need a few tips and advice and a little guide. My whole family depends on me getting through pedagogically. So I really need a stable, well-paying job that can support a family.
I would be really grateful for any help you can offer. – Embarrassed and overwhelmed
Dear Embarrassed: Instead of being embarrassed, you should be proud. You invest in your education, start a new chapter in life and at the same time help to look after your family. Don’t let yourself be put off starting school just because you feel overwhelmed with applying for a student loan. Navigating the student loan system can be a challenge, even for people who have done it before. It goes without saying that you will need instructions to do this. Fortunately, the Federal Student Aid Information Center is there for this purpose. Contact their hotline at 800-433-3243 for expert help. Hats off and best wishes to you.
