The last time I posted on this forum, I did not get even one reply. So, here goes another attempt.

I was driving a 2007 Chevy HHR. I have poor credit and it was financed. I was making $350 monthly payments and it would not be paid off until 2021. Well, I was having some issues with it. I took it in to where I got it, and they determined it needed a new engine and other work. I inquired about trading it in, but they said no. So, I agreed to put $500 down on the engine, and pay $75 extra monthly for the service fees. That would have made my car payment $425.

Well, my roommate ( aka romantic partner ) is trying to trade his car in. He has a 2012 Chevy Cruz, and it is having problems. The body is all banged up and the oil is going back into the transmission. So, we go to where he got the car from. He applies for credit and on a whim, I decided to apply. Well, he got denied and I got approved. I rolled off the lot in a 2019 Chevy Cruz.

My life has been hell ever since. He is very angry that I got a car and he didn't. This is a toxic relationship anyways, and with his anger, it just makes it worse. It blew up yesterday while we were at the store. He got out the car screaming and yelling and throwing things. I can't handle this much longer.

I am still in shock they approved me. I didn't want or need a brand new car. I just wanted to get a newer car and got out of the horrible financial mess I was in.

Not sure if this will get any replies, but it feels better to get it out.

Thanks for reading.
