I'm worried that I've lent money to my boyfriend

My boyfriend, who is 14 years older and divorced, confided that “my friend has 200,000 debts,” and even though I wasn't asked to, I lent him 200,000 yen.
It was said that there were other debts, so I said, “Repayment to me is fine at the end, so end the other debts.”

After that, he was hospitalized for a week due to a chronic illness, and his income declined. I also paid for the hospital expenses at that time.

Although he was discharged from the hospital, his return to work did not go well and he retired.
I went outside the prefecture for a temporary job in search of a high hourly wage.
However, my salary is lower than I had imagined, and even now that six months have passed, my savings are stupid, and my debt repayment is minimal. Of course there are no repayments to me.

I decide to go on a monthly date every time.
I don't know if I really wanted to meet him.
I'm frustrated and distrustful because I can't see them trying to repay me or seriously trying to save money.

At that time, my middle school classmate (male) contacted me.
I feel like I'm being favored, and I'm shaken.

My boyfriend says he'll come back here and get a job one month after his temporary contract expires.
But it's not always possible to get a job right away, and even if I do, I think it will still take a long time to repay my debts, and I'm full of anxiety. If the two of us join forces, we may be able to do it somehow.
But in the current state of lending money, I don't feel like working hard together. But if I wait for it to be returned, I don't even know how old it will be.
Everyone around me got married and gave birth.
I get impatient even when I know it's not something I can compare myself to others.

I want to go to a classmate who is financially secure.
But that doesn't necessarily mean it will work.

On the other hand, I think it would be true love if I managed to work hard with my current boyfriend, but I'm uneasy thinking only about the age difference and struggles with money.

I think love is necessary for marriage, but I also think money is important.
In the first place, my head is confused by thinking too much about whether I really want to get married, whether I'm dating my boyfriend because I want my money back, or whether I actually always liked my classmates.
What on earth do I want to do... I can't sleep every day

What does happiness mean to you

Good morning, Gaako-san.
From the questions, I can tell you how anxious and unbearably anxious you are.
I'm saying something important here.
The world is full of “anxiety.”
That's why people look for peace of mind.
So where is peace of mind?
It's only in your heart.

I have friends and acquaintances around me who have been married three times and are living an enviably happy life.

Who do you think you should marry to be happy?
  

Perfect Pimp Man

That guy is a complete pimp.
In terms of fish, I'm a black shark type who uses a woman's motherhood to work and eat with a left tufted fan. Congrats.
Eventually, while you're off to work, they'll make other women contribute, so he's fine even if it's not you. In order for you to get your money back without breaking up with him, you have no choice but to write a three-volume set of “You Can Be a Pimp,” “Zero Eternity Savings,” and “The Man Called Gigolo” for men, and guess them.
Pimps are good at praising women, pouring love, reassuring them, and making them contribute.
Strings are strings because they don't make your opponent think you're deceiving them.
The victims of Pimp and Heron also don't want to think or affirm that they have been deceived, so even if I say this, it's a mechanism where you don't think your opponent is a pimp man.
Many women who pay tribute to pimp men are relied upon by their opponents, making them think that I have to protect them, and a large amount of caregiving energy is secreted. The laziness is part of the appeal.
Marriage is impossible. In the first place, men without money are not allowed to get married even overseas. This is because they are not qualified to raise children. There are only dramas about Aida no Nanda.
If you don't have money, kids feel poor, pimps don't work, and they literally feel awkward because they're just pimps.
Today's Japan would not be able to live without money. Clean things don't work.
Break up quickly and marry a man with money!! That's it. 🙍

Isn't that good?

Gaaako-sama
Nice to meet you, my name is Tetsuya Urakami from Nagomi-an.

My first impression after reading the question is that Gaako may have been deceived by him. Whoever reads it will think so. And no matter who reads it, they'll think you should break up with him for now.

First, I was in my mid-30s to 40s, got into debt from a friend, and then I borrowed money from her in order to pay it back (in the name that might be a lie)... Why don't you take a look at him with a slightly sober eye?

... But even when I hear such opinions, I don't honestly think “Yes, that's right.” It has a history up until now, it's not like they don't have love, and they lend money...

It's your life, isn't it?
They said they had a hard life after being deceived by a bad man.
Isn't that fine, even if you can't get married or have children?

... sorry, that was a lie.
Certainly, there may be women who do their best for sloppy men and feel a sense of happiness because of that.
But I don't want that to happen to you.

As Gaako said, I think money is important too.
But what is more important than that is mutual trust.
I think it is only when there is a sense of trust that the two of them can join forces and do it.
Even if you have money, if you don't have a sense of trust, the pain will only increase.

One more thing.
While I was having trouble with him, a classmate who might have a crush on Gaako showed up. Your heart is shaken by your feelings for that classmate. But he and his classmates should think about it as a separate issue. If you make a mess, I don't think you'll be able to make a good decision.

This is Kawaguchi Hidetoshi. This is my humble answer to the question.

“I think marriage requires love, but I also think money is important.” ... I really feel desperate...

I often hear the words “if you only have love, what money...” and “if you don't have money, if you only have love...”, the reality is that no matter what you do in actual life, you honestly can't do anything without anything that comes before you.

In short, it is important to maintain a balanced relationship in everything. Love alone is no good, and money alone is no good. In Buddhism, it is recommended to eliminate getting caught up in one side to the extreme, obsessing over it, and getting bogged down. This is called “Nakamichi,” and until now, it has been handled with the following questions.

Debt and money loan issues also need balance relationships, in other words, determine the balance of income and expenditure, and those who lend must also return them.

This is just a guess based on reading a little bit of the content, but it seems like that boyfriend lacks a sense of balance in various ways. Naturally, of course, we won't lend any more money, but although the money you lent isn't a matter of amount, it may be a good idea to give up on half of it in order to avoid unnecessary trouble or personal danger in the future...

If you lend and borrow poorly, you may be hit by a ridiculous disaster even for a really small amount, so I believe that careful judgment will be required.

In order not to cause trouble a little further, it may be necessary to have various preventive lines set up through third parties.

Anyway, I know this is an opportunity for me to honestly face my honest feelings once again.

We have dealt with “happiness” in the following questions, so please refer to them for a moment.
