My crush wants me to give him rides, but I'm really embarrassed of my car?
I'm 17, and a newly licensed driver. I'm totally grateful for even having a car. The car itself looks fine; it's a 2000 Ford Focus. It's a normal, small car. I bought it used, and it came with a broken side view mirror that has been "artfully"by taped back on. It has no glass mirror either. I still haven't fixed it because money is tight with my parents.
And when I turn on the car, it makes an engine noise. I'm used to it, but I remember how I reacted to it when I first heard it…
He obviously wants the rides as an excuse to be around me, as we have no classes together, and only see each other occasionally in the hallways or at lunch. I just don't know what to do, or what to tell him? We're both 17. I just feel so insecure about it.
Don't be embarrassed, it is a lot better than what HE drives. Maybe he can fix the mirror, as another excuse to be around you.
Don't be so materialistic… You'll ruin your chances with him. He's not interested in your car; he's interested in you.
Don't worry about it ---- he does not even have one so you are worrying about nothing
- Do some people really care that much about driving a really nice car? My dad is perfectly okay with his 1992 Ford Taurus with 210,000 miles on it, no heat (he lives in Chicago btw), no A/C, and a f::::ked up passenger side door. He's not poor by any means, he's a CFO of a bank. He just says that driving that P. Builds character and he only cares about having a car that can take him from point A to point B.
- 2000 ford taurus, is really hard to start, when it does start it idles really rough? 2000 ford taurus, is really hard to start, when it does start it idles really rough until completely warm, we replaced 4 coils and at first it helped but has returned just as bad.
- 2002 ford ranger wants to start but won't? I took the truck threw a mud hole. Made it threw then truck stalled. I got it to start back up but it was blowing out some smoke so friends convinced me to just let it sit and dry. I did that and now it won't start at all. It acts like it wants to but just won't.
- Is Christine Ford like one of those celebrity stalkers. She has imagined a whole history with Kavanaugh but has never even met him? I think Brad Pitt had a woman swear she was married to him secretly for 10 years.,… Ford seems like the same kind of of case
