I live in California with my parents. This week though I've been with my boyfriend at his house. Because of my absence, my mom has been texting and calling me repeatedly telling me to go to Wells Fargo and get a copy of one of my paychecks so that she can get a car. We haven't had a car for the past two months since ours died out and every time I tell her to get a new one she says she will but doesn't.
This Friday I was with my boyfriend and friend just hanging out and she called me through my sister's Insta telling me that tomorrow at 3pm we have to go to the dealership with my paycheck, I also need to have an extra $60 to give to her. My friend hears this and tells me that I absolutely shouldn't do this. My mom tells me to go into a different room and continues saying that her prepaid card's check won't work and that getting a check with a bank like Wells Fargo will. It doesn't matter if I have work or that I have a party to go to or plans to do or anything, it needs to be done now. Their rental car is going to need to be returned Monday and she needs me.
After the call my friend pulls me to the side and says that his mom has put a truck in his name and because of missed payments and even committing a felony in it, it prevented him from being able to go to college for several years and basically ruined his life and his credit before he got to live it. I've been talked to by my boyfriend's father and my friend's cousin who both agree that this is ultimately my choice. I agree with everybody, I don't want to do this as it would not only ruin my life but my boyfriend's should we get married as well as allow my parents to continue their abuse on me. My parents are notorious for not paying certain bills on time despite making the money simply because they gamble it away. We've had several cars taken away because of missed payments and I won't have them do that to me.
Problem is, is that I still live with my family for the most part. I can't afford to live on my own. I don't know what to do or what the best options are. If I should just save and buy a car to give to them or run away.
