Well, I just signed a lease with my boyfriend and we moved in together this past August. I trusted him and believed that he could afford the place we moved into…well, since we’ve moved he’s had 3 creditors call for money. I looked at his credit report (which he is now mad at me for doing, because I didn’t ask) and I found out that he has close to $20,000 in credit card debt!! Just credit cards!! He says it is all from his previous marriage, and I believe him……but now it is 6 years later and people want their money!! He had all the cards in his name, NOT his wifes, and their divorce was messy and he just signed off that she would get all assets, and he got all the debt. I guess he just thought if he ignored it long enough it would just go away….but it hasn’t and now it will most likely keep him from pitching in for rent and utilities, and then I will get EVICTED!! I really do love him and I know he means well, but he is so bad with money!!
