Woman Demands Husband To Come Clean About His Finances, Discovers He Is in $50K of Credit Card Debt After Buying a New Car and an Engagement Ring

When you're considering marrying someone, the idea of spending the rest of your lives together can seem a bit daunting. You can only hope that every step you've taken together thus far has counted for something, and the only way forward is up. You don't want to spend the rest of your life sulking in regret about what you could have done differently to avoid certain negative outcomes. The most important thing that anyone who is considering marrying should know is that dishonesty should be a dealbreaker. If you cannot trust your significant other, what foundation do you have to stand on before it starts crumbling under your feet?

The woman in this story is dealing with a six-year-long relationship that might possibly be reaching an indefinite halt. She was under the impression that her fiancé had been smart enough about his money, with the exception of a failed business venture. It appears that he had run through his $20K savings and trust fund before getting to college. She is worried that her financial independence will be stunted if she goes through with their marriage timeline, but doesn't want to sacrifice what she's built for herself because of his poor financial decisions. The fiancé had been taking her on expensive vacations and purchased a $10K engagement ring for her, and according to the title, also purchased a new car despite having massive amounts of debt.

She's wondering if it's possible to save herself from a life of living in the financial trenches. Scroll to read the entire story, including advice from others who advise that she should leave him for the time being, or simply leave him altogether.
