In my country there is a saying: "It will all get well until marriage." It is used for young people who do not realize just how much time is on their side. You two seem to be only in your twenties; and the gypsy lady says these tiny problems will be campfire stories before you hit 30ty. I'm 43 and just a year ago I had a very nasty financial situation. Solved it. But it sure would help if I was in my 20, because it is easier to fix things when you are young. My savings shall be back to normal when I'm 45. Yours - when you're 28.  So relax and let it be for a while. After all the problems don't get fixed any sooner if you pile them on your stomach.

None of us is everready, it happened to me too. It's less than a year that I live on my own with my GF, still student, destroyed my second car and had to revert to the old one (luckily I kept it) with a lot of money to spend to repair it (my dad told me he was to demolish it and then he repaired it for me as a Christmas present, bless him) but the shock is still there and the economic damage too.
Alo there are problems with my GF study carreer that will force her to attend a University 150 km farther than the one she's currently enrolled in, so there will be huge costs of transportation. Every so often I need to make repairs in my rented house since all the equipment is old and battered, then there come taxes of any kind and surprises like huge bills not dictated by actual usage...
Nobody is ready, ever. You can just soldier on.

Quote: Even worse, i bought an expensive car
i am not sure if this is a good solution but you may sell your expensive car and use bus/train option for sometime and you can use the money for other important things.

Ah, wait until you install windows 10, and then the real problems begin.

Sounds like you are just starting out, in 5-10 years time all these problems will be a memory once you've started to establish yourselves, and more or less forgotten later. The trick is to pick yourself up and carry on.

It's times like these that I am reminded of the words of one of the greatest warriors in human history, when he was asked what is best in life.
Conan said: To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.
As long as you have those three things, nothing else matters. 
Side note: My Calculus III professor played that clip[^] on the overhead projector before an exam once, and then said "You know you've written a good exam when you hear the lamentations of the women." Some of us were heartened by it, others were terrified. 
The United States invariably does the right thing, after having exhausted every other alternative. -Winston Churchill
America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. -Oscar Wilde
Wow, even the French showed a little more spine than that before they got their sh*t pushed in.[^] -Colin Mullikin

I'll let you into a secret. The day you're first ready for life is the day after they bury you! The trick is to keep breathing!

Well, at least you have each other! Sometimes I find it helpful, during rough times, to write down all the great things going on in life. Do that with your lady (and don't forget to include her in the list!)
If you're more of a melancholic type, like my gf, sometimes, odd as it may seem to people like me, it actually helps to realize how much more other people are suffering, those with terminal illnesses (like my friend), the homeless people that I see almost every day right here in Hudson NY, even the roadkill cat on my way to the grocery store -- most likely, that was someone's beloved pet.
And lastly, sometimes it really is uplifting to do some random act of kindness for someone. It doesn't have to be money, it can be volunteering at a church that is feeding the hungry, etc. Again, another activity that can be really rewarding to do with your partner.
Me, personally, I often simply go through a quick mental exercise of asking, well, will I be having these troubles in 6 months, a year, five years? Probably not most of them, probably different ones, but all I know is that life is not an immutable function. 
My 2c.

It can't be that simple, can it?
Completely obvious maybe? Perhaps utterly trivial example required?

Nope - I don't think I'm capable of being a keyboard - but "key bored" quite possibly.
