before I was diagnosed with a compulsive disorder I shopped and bought things all the time, and made impulse buys on huge things.  SHe may need counseling or medication...the meds worked for me

maybe it does have to do with addiction, maybe it's her addiction, hard to know without more info
good to see that you are doing so well yourself
i used to spend a lot of money on "stuff" before i had to buy my pills
my husband would tell me at the end of the month how much money we had so i could buy what ever it was i was pestering him about so i knew that was my limit

ya then she says well why dont we cut off the internet that 50 a month, but that doesnt even touch the payments on the stuff she wants, ive told her a thousand times, she just keeps complaining over and over, until i fianlly get it to shut her up, and live even further in debt than i am now
