...and dies? After it dies i am able to restart the car with no problem i had a friend say it could have something to do with a bad Cadlic Converter(SP)? i'm kind of short of funds so i hope i can get some help here so i dont have to scrap the car.

I've seen this frequently on GM cars about the age of yours....it usually turns out that the lockup in the torque converter is no longer unlocking properly, leading to a stall. It's easy enough to check, just unplug the blue square connector on the transmission, driver's side. See if the problem goes away. One bad thing, though....while this won't hurt your car, your fuel mileage will drop about 2-4 mpg.

Is the car in good shape physically??? Sounds to me like you may have a clogged fuel filter, often over-looked. Is your car in proper tune?? When fuel doesn't burn thoroughly enough for your catalytic converter to do it's job, the converter may clog up. There are special chemicals available from many auto parts stores that you can pour down your throttle body with the engine running and it should blow the muck out of the converter, if it is clogged. Never use cheap non-tier one fuels with inadequate detergent ratings, as they will clog the thing up all over again. Try the fuels that advertise "drive your engine clean".
