Why do men think it’s okay to ask women to cosign on loans with them when we are just dating and they not offering a ring? …Natalie 40

Well, Natalie…

I think that most men will take whatever you are giving. If they feel they can get you to sign a car loan in your name for them, why wouldn’t they ask. It’s up to you to ask yourself why are you binding yourself to a man who hasn’t shown you that he wants anything more than to be your boyfriend. I learned early on in life not to play wife to anyone. Don’t offer wife benefits to someone who has not discussed marriage with you. By no means am I saying that you can’t cook for a man and cater to him, but there is a fine line between being a good girlfriend and giving away too much. If you are doing his laundry, running errands, paying his bills, etc…Then you have crossed that line and you need to reevaluate your situation and figure out if playing wife is what you really want. Trust me there’s someone out there willing to make you a wife for real.
