Get on a budget plan, if things are real bad. If not, go and pay all past due bills. Then keep new bills with a calender and if you can't or he can't remember mark them on the calender. Biggest thing is paying before they are due. Past due and late fee's are bad news especially if it's credit card bills. Good Luck!

You need to create a budget. You need to include both your incomes and get all the bills together. Get a calendar and fill in your pay days and the days the bills are due. The catch is you have to sacrifice on some of your "wants" to take care of your "needs". And you have to be diligent in following the budget. Don't forget to figure in other things that you have to pay for on a monthly basis too like groceries, gas, etc. Once everything is caught up, you'll be back on track and hopefully have saved up a little bit for your "rainy days".

Okay, let me first warn you. If your boyfriend has past bills, make him pay them. You did not help him aquire those bills, so do not pay them. Secondly, get an accountant. You will need someone to handle your affairs. It is hard to budget a household and pay all the bills too. Make sure you have seperate checking accounts until you are married. Be careful and good luck.
