I can understand the idea of not wanting to impose, especially given the potential of your H doing something stupid. But remember one of the talking points on the Self-Esteem Thread. Let people help you. It not only gives them warm fuzzies from doing something good, but makes them feel part of your life, connected to you, and thus can help boost your own self-esteem. That is of course unless the "friend" wanted you to feel indebted to them in some way, in which case they aren't really a friend. Just some food for thought. And I am serious about the church thing. You are in the South right? There should be churches nearby you can turn to for help. That is what they collect money from members for each week.
