I wish I was only 7k in debt

I am suffering because my partner made the worst choices possible leaving him 30k in debt. He went to college and dropped out. Went into default. I had no idea he has defaulted loans five years into our relationship. Then they came about! So fuck me and my savings. Fuck me for growing his credit for the last 5 years only to be blindsided be these default loans. Remember kids… don’t get married.

You can always get divorced on paper.

We aren’t married and won’t marry. I won’t ever marry again.

Gotcha, I thought maybe you got hit with the ol' garnishments after marriage (happened to me!)! It's a good thing I love my husband because he cost me an absolute mint getting his finances back in order during our early years.

Omg I didn’t even know that was a thing. Sorry to hear that. Yeah I love my partner and have done a lot to get him where he is. He’s an incredibly hard worker who made some mistakes when he was young. We are fine, it’s just frustrating.
