Have to think this is an old fashioned troll.

No way you can be upset about things like a relatively cheap one bedroom apartment and $500 on her credit card.

You should probably break up with her. Would be doing both of you a big favor down the line if you can't deal with this garden variety stuff eight months into a dating relationship at 24.

I wish my wife only had $500 credit card debt when get got married

$500 ain't shite, but you best get her on the ball before it gets out of hand because it will become your problem if you choose to stay with her.

The student loan debt isn't anything out of the ordinary.

Yep. That's basically "just the tip" when it comes to credit card companies roping people in.

Not reading the responses but sounds like you're overreacting. OMG she took a 5-day vacation!!!! Life is too short to stress about money like that. Chill the frick out if y'all are just dating. 34k in debt is only a concern in marriage. I wouldn't recommend anyone to get married before 30

I've been dating this girl for 8 months. Were in love and it's very serious. Every aspect of the relationship is great. We get along, don't have major issues, except one. Her financial situation and responsibility is beyond concerning.


Actually I think you may have 2!

Your SO sounds remarkably similar to my ex-wife. Eerily so.

The only thing I will say is this:

Divorcing her was the smartest financial move I ever made.

Consider how financially devastating divorce can be, then read the previous sentence again.

Think about your future and consider a different path from what you are on.

The voice of wisdom and experience is talking to you right now.

Thanks a lot. My thread got anchored and now I can't have any real discussion about the topic.

Where do you and your SO live? The reason I ask is because where in the hell is 650 an unreasonable amount for rent. You sound extremely douchey and naive.

Step back and realize she's not as bad as you think she is.

She works so at least she has that going for her. Pay attention to if she is actually paying that debt. If she isn't and starts pressuring you to put a ring on it, run. It will mean she wants you to take care of it for her. Be up front and honest with her about it. She's going to call you a dick and be pissed for a while, but if she loves you will understand you are looking out for her. If you look the other way and you end up marrying her, you will have no one to blame but yourself when she puts you in a whole you can never recover from. Pay attention
