When we decided to leave. We were terrified. With no money, with nothing much to bring, except for our clothes, laptops, books and such. That are important.
The thing is, a few friends found out, and they helped us immediately. No question asked. The only question they asked, anything else we were lacking and they got it for us. They dont ask for me to pay back. No, nothing.
It was a good beginning. Struggling here and there as my income has always been ups and downs.
I could feel, that my soon to be ex wish that i am suffering for leaving. He gave rm200 each to my children, per month for the past few months and started to increase to rm300 this month.
He has an apartment that he let me managed and the rental goes into my account. That helps, with the kids insurance that i am atill paying monthly. Why do i bother? Because the money, might help with my children to further their study. Truth. I cannot predict if the father going to pay or not for their studies. Yeah.. I know, kids chose not to speak to their father. As they gave up in trying to make him understand, from their point of view. And they gave up on just letting go of the blame game that the father has been putting on them. It has always someone else's fault for anything that has happened.
Back to my friends. You all are just incredible. Thanks to my two brothers as well who has helped me financially, time to time.
I dont know how to ask for money. From anyone, even my own family. But if my friends ask me out for dinner or Lunch. I told them straight, cheap places, i am in. So, most of the time, they pay for my meals. And for that i am internally and eternally greatful.
