be careful if it's in his name. if you give a man the power to feed you, you give him the power to starve you. do NOT get rid of your old car

Why would you accept a car from a bf? How long have you been dating?

This is good advice! I did actually voice concerns about driving a car in someone else’s name when we’re not even married, and I’m on it too as the secondary owner:) he can’t take me off without my consent or extenuating circumstances like death. In the event we break up, I will relinquish ownership rather than fighting over it since ultimately he paid for it. I’m keeping my car!! Even if it’s older and has its issues, it still runs and will be easy to maintain the baseline so I’m never stranded

I insure the car, and talked about it more extensively with the agent (USAA is so helpful by the way, if you can, get in on that), it’s the safer way forward for me to have more records regarding it solely in my name. If he ever just took it one day, my insurance being for me alone will regard it as stolen and rental insurance will kick in. But thank you so much for looking out, you’re a good soul and I think everyone should deeply weight their options, relationship, and escape routes before

effectively handing any large pieces of your life over to another person. Especially before there’s more legal protections in it for you (marriage, prenup)
