    Seriously?

    Just because you're "good" to her does NOT mean she can afford just shelling out $3K for you.

    Even if you get mad about it. In fact... ESPECIALLY if you get mad and hate her for it.

    If you really want a car I would suggest leaning about finances, saving money, and public transport.

    There are people out there every day who take the bus or walk.... I don't see where you're too special for this.

      I wasn't being real specific in my post, and that's my fault, so I'll go into more detail right now.

      I asked my mom to lend me money previously and at that time she agreed to it. Her exact words we're, " I'll lend you the money. Just give me a few weeks and I'll help you get your car ". I waited a few weeks, and still no word yet, so I decided to confront her and ask her. Then she said (As seen above in my description), " Oh! I don't have anymore money, just a few hundred dollars left! ", and that was the end of it.

      I'd agree with you about me being immature if I just asked her for money and she said " no " the first time, but she gave me her word and didn't follow through with it. Not only that, for some reason she felt the need to lie too.

      I don't think any other person would react and take this anymore differently then I have. It's dishonest and misleading, and I don't think it's wrong of me to have resentment towards my mom for that.

        Perhaps she's finding out she doesn't have as much as she thought she did. I mean bills do take up a lot of your income sometimes.
