I confess

I am 34 years old and I don't have a drivers licence. But that is probably a good thing because I am also a compulsive shopper.

Any real reason why?

After spending a min of 10 hrs a week in traffic on my commutes I wish I didn't have one either. Especially being pregnant it kills my back and I can't drive more then a mile without needing to pee. Driving is totally over rated.

You may not be able to drive to a store to shop, but you can shop online.
Are you afraid to drive? Physically unable to? Just never saw the need to have a license?

well if you are a compulsive shopper you probably shouldn't have Internet access either lol.

i love to shop so i know what you mean but my license is an absolute necessity.

I'm 35 and don't have mine...No one would ever help me get one...Not something you can do without help...

How do you need help? Like someone to drive you to get one? Or someone to take you to take the test?

I can get a car with no assistance from anyone but I live in a big city (NY) public transport is much more than adequate. Up here, we don't need a car, we have one but only dh drives

When I was in high school and it was time for drivers ed I never took it. I knew my parents couldn't afford it. And I didn't feel the need to learn. I have thought about trying to get it over the years. But I am afraid of failure. And I am also scared to dive period.

And yes I do shop online however I feel that it's some how easier to control in a way. Because if I could drive I would be going out everyday looking for stuff to do and spend money. I have never been told I am compulsive shopper. I just took a quiz online that said i was one.
