39yr old, Living with Mom...

Ok...I know I've been few and far between with my writing (I should do better)...anywho...I have a situation I'd like to pose to my readers...here are the stats on this guy:

39y/o, no kids, works in maintenance and lives at home with his mother...so I know the burning question is WHY he lives at home...the answer is that he got a DUI (or DWI, can't remember) and the court costs have depleted his funds...he moved back in with his mom, has a job and will be starting school in a couple of weeks....

Now...the only other thing I know about this gentleman is that he is a seemingly nice and genuine guy...the "I live at home with my mom" conversation was initiated by him...

These days, brothas are always giving sistas a hard time for not giving a brotha a shot, for only being interested in men with money, etc...so I pose this question...does this brotha get a shot or does he belong in the friends and nothing more bucket???

  1. I am usually the one on the "give the brotha a chance" team but I am seeing red flags here.

    One DUI/DWI alone doesn't deplete you finacially to the point that you have to move back home unless you were already broke. Multiple DUI/DWI can break you. Something in the milk ain't clean here.

    And I applaud him for going to school at 39 but he will not be equally yoked with you in a relationship.

    Maybe make him a friend but you drive yourself to meet him for drinks.

  2. Ooh anonymous beat me to it. That was either one case of a deathly DUI, or there were multiple situations. He could only make it as far as friend status with me.
