Dear Diva

Dear Diva,

My fiancé and I have been together for 6 months. In that time, he has had 3 jobs, and has been unemployed for the past month. He says it's because of the economy, but truth is, he ain't exactly bustin' his butt to find another job. He says he's looking for work, but that most jobs out there require a car to get to, and his is falling apart. I don't think he's been on more than 3 or 4 interviews, if that many.

The other day, he asked me to co-sign a car loan for him so that he can get a good used car, so that he can have a better chance of getting a job. While I'd like to help him get back on his feet, I'm not sure this is a good idea. What do you think I should do?

Signed,

Queen in a Quandary

Dear Quandered Queen,

I think you should get rid of this poor excuse for a man, and get yourself another one. Like they say, there are other fish in the sea, and they are making new ones everyday.

Unless you want to be paying for this lazy no-good loser's wheels (which he'll probably be drivin' some tramp around in once you agree to sign your name on the dotted line) for the next several years of your life, I'd tell him to hit the road, Jack and find his sorry ass a job!
