I'm hurting as well. Can't collect unemployment (always been full time student), not eligible for welfare, had to move back in with my parents, got student loans to pay, no driver's license, on probation (no bar scene, no high romances), AND I'm flat broke (think I have $27.00 to my name). I still don't give up because I have been with the most incredible girl I have ever met, she loved me unconditionally no matter how badly off I was, yet I threw it away for heroin. I'm clean now and see some amazing girls out there who stick by their husbands/boyfriends who fucked up royally and are financially bankrupt. The one's who care about money don't fully care about you. Just keep a clean appearance and as was mentioned, make an honest attempt to get out of the situation you are in and eventually you will find a girl who loves you for you, not the contents of your wallet.
