If it.s going to strap you for cash, don.t buy it. If you end up dating the guy, show him the pic and ask him to buy it for you!
It.s kitschy-sexy 1950's housewives. Reminds me of Gretchen on The Real Housewives of Orange County and her style!
I hope you don't really do that - ask guys to buy you stuff. That's horrible.

If you can't afford it, don't buy it. Buy something great when you can afford it, and wear it with this special someone at a special occasion.

The dress will not make the guy like you more.

I really dont have the money to be buying it and to be honest i have never bought clothing this expensive but im thinking of doing it bc hey, you only live once the dress isnt in stock now but i chatted with a salesperson in the chat box and she says they should be in before two weeks from now though she doesnt have an exact date

is this to much money to spend on a dress for a date? do you think its worth that amount? is it okay for a date? I think the dress is super pretty and Im in love with it but wanted separate opinions. Thanks!
Then no, you shouldn't but it.

It doesn't matter how pretty it is. How many times you intend to wear it. How awesome the guy you'll go on a date with. No. If you don't have the money to buy it, don't buy it. Buying things on credit card, despite not having the cash to pay it out asap is how you'll drown yourself into major debts.

Excellent! Never spend money that you do not have. Since you are young, I am going to give you some unsolicited advice: spend money on investment pieces and save what I call "cookie money." After you pay your bills and put money into savings and investments like stocks (yes, you need to do this), then you can think about buying fun things like that cute dress with your cookie money.

The sister who is pregnant and is a drug user and cannot care for her baby, and who sells her food stamp card meant to feed the baby, and you have to struggle to keep her from doing the same with Baby's WIC (you posted) to get drug money, has NICE CLOTHES?

Do you not see the wrongness of that?

So her being a lowlife drug user who neglects an infant, while she sports fashionable garments, is a thing you post about?

Like it was just an OK thing to do?

Unbelievable.

My God I pray someone calls children's services on your family. Those kids...my skin is crawling to think of their daily life in the unheated trailer with the drunk grandma and drugged out sister.

Shes not using right now, not since she found out. And I wouldnt say she has super fashion clothes but she actually does keep up with styles and she has a good eye and buys clothes from the store. I honestly don't. i am most of the time in my work uniform or my pajamas. of course I dont go anywhere but my sister has a car and I dont.

Well I hope they dont bc then I would lose all the kids. And the trailer isnt that bad, its clean.
