Did I just make a horrible mistake?

I currently have 2 predatory loans that are completely draining me.
One from Uprova and one from OPPloan.
The APR for Uprova is about 350% and OPPloan is almost 200%

United settlement contacted me and it sounded incredible. The next day, I realized what it actually is and there could be lawsuits and my credit score could be severely affected.

I was so desperate to get these 2 loans off my back that I may have gotten in another situation. The monthly payments seem more doable and I get it’s a legitimate company. But I have to stop payments and that could affect my already suffering credit score

The total between those 2 loans is about $4900. So it’s not INSANE, but with the interest and if I just pay the scheduled payments, it’ll Triple what I owe.

I was also just denied a bank loan so I just don’t know what to do and if I got myself in a worse issue.

Any women feel called to single hood?

I’ve discerned religious life for a couple of years and I don’t believe God is calling me to religious life.

I’ve gone on dates and I don’t feel called to the vocation of marriage.

I am discerning with a 3rd order and that has been my greatest joy in the world.

I guess I expected I’d get married and nothing has come from that. Not saying that means I’m not called, but I don’t know. I sort of come towards acceptance.

Wondering if any other ladies have felt this way too?

My predatory loans are just draining me. Any advice?

Yes I was stupid to take these loans out. Ive made very poor financial decisions the last couple of years and im really trying to make it right.

I have a loan from Uprova which is $2400 and OPPloan which I believe is $2000. The interest rate is destroying me. I have other bills and such I need to obviously pay off. Once the due date comes around for these 2 loans, it’s just awful and I literally don’t have any money.

For OPP loan it’s $100 a week and uprova it’s $325 every other week.

I just contacted a non profit agency to possibly help me because I absolutely don’t know how else to pay this.

I’ve also stupidly done Klarna a lot and they all hit at one single time which also makes this difficult. I’m trying so badly to get it all together but I just don’t make enough money per week to do it all.

I regret all these horrid financial choices I’ve made.

My right eye is aging quicker than my left.

I honestly do not understand this and it’s driving me up a wall.

Yes I know my left eye has a bit of wrinkling but my right eye is just ridiculous. Can I fix this?

Edit: it’s a photo so it’s flipped. Just so I don’t sound dumb lol
Edit: I’m 32

Any hair salon recommendations?

I I really need help with finding a hair salon that ACTUALLY knows how to do hair.
Every time I go to a different salon, the stylist tells me everything the previous stylist did wrong. Then they fix it, then I go to another one and they ask me what happened.
It’s really really frustrating. I have pretty thick hair and it’s curly. I just want to be happy with my hair cut for once lol. Thank you.

A little nervous to put myself out there like this 😂. But I struggle very much with finding a make up routine that helps enhance my features. I feel like I put make up on and then it doesn’t look like I’m wearing any. Or if I go heavier on make up, I look like a clown. Not sure what would be flattering.
My biggest issue are my eyes. They easily look VERY tired in certain lighting and it’s frustrating(this photo was taken with very good lighting lol) . Or if I put eyeliner on the wrong way, it’ll look weird. Not even sure what my eye shape is.
Any way, all that to say, is I’m very much lost and frustrated 😂

I was recommended this subreddit. I feel like such an idiot and the biggest loser. I’m 33 and I was never taught how to manage my finances. I have zero to show for my work. None. Because the moment I get money in my hands, I spend it. Without me even realizing I’m doing it.

On top of that, I’ve taken out loans that have a 130% interest but I had to because I had zero money to pay for my bills. It’s with opploan and uprova. It’s been horrible.

I’m in $15,000 worth of debt and I keep digging myself into a deeper hole.
I’m making a budget right now for the 200th time and every week I go right back to having $100 in my account because I have so many loans I have to pay off. And I’ve done so many pay later options that when they come around, it all hits at the same time and there goes $300.

No scolding please. I’m already really really down and I don’t know what to do. I just want to be financially capable and be a functioning adult.

I make around 4,000 a month and I just cannot get it together.

I’m not using any pay later options since I’m trying to pay it all off right now. It’s at $1,500. I also give my mom money each month because she’s struggling too. So by the time the end of the month comes around and I give her what I owe, I have nothing

I want to be an adult. I want to live on my own (living with my mom now). I want to just get my stuff
together and I just don’t know how to do it.
