Would you end a relationship if your partner was bad with money?

I agree with you that too many people jump into relationships for financial security and a place to stay. In this particular situation, im wondering how you move in with somebody, only to find out their credit score is a deal breaker. Was this not talked about beforehand? Things like criminal records and credit scores/debt need to be talked about in a relationships infancy. Its one thing to play around and have fun, if we're serious i need to know who you are.
This applies to mostly women but men deal with it too. Because they are freeloading women who have several dudes in the friend zone helping them out with bills, moving, kids,etc. But then they start dating some other guy. They're lots of men falling for those romance scams sending chicks $80,000-$300,000. But my issue reading some of the comments on the page was a lot of people were calling the chick a gold digger, 15k aint that much, she should help him out, these chicks are asking for too much.

But my thing is they are living together and even though there's nothing wrong with helping people with financial advice. You should know all that yourself. I remember going to a Rich Dad Poor Dad seminar which gave me great advice, now Im monitoring my credit score, trying to keep up with bills. This is all while I'm single. Too many people are hoping in relationships for financial security & a place to stay. And I big thing is they are not married, just living together. I feel its bad to be doing so much for a person your not married to. And at some point, you should know to take care of your own bills. But I think living together without marriage is a bad idea anyways. I've seen the helping out bf/gf get their life together fail way more than it was successful. Watch any judge show and there is always someone suing their ex for leaving them with a bill and messing up their credit.

That's a deal-breaker for a breh. You don't have to make much but you do have to have control of it.:francis:
So you hook up with one of the baddest chicks you've met in life. Down to fukk 3/4 times a day and these are not quickies. Some episodes turn into afternoon long fukk sessions. Gives head anytime you want it, and will freak in public. Loyal as fukk to you. You kicking her in the bushes because her financial skills are lackin? You wouldnt try to help her?

^^^^^This right here. Being good with money is what matters. Its better to be with someone who made $50,000 with good credit and good with money than someone who makes more and with bad credit and is bad with their money. But the question said dude was bad with money, bad credit & owed $15,000.

Look at Tyrese making $105,000 but spending $107,000 crying on camera, twerking and stuff. But there's a postal worker out there making $50,000, with an 700 credit score living well.

All the physical things are great but, for me, as I've matured I've realized it's not the most important. Nonetheless, as for the financial issues with said lady, I would gladly help but if she doesn't have the will nor want to improve then:camby:.....after some breakup sex of course.:shaq:

Yes, I like frugal women that tell you about the deals they got at TJ Max.

Exactly..

I be seeing women in grocery stores with a notebook with coupons and when u see them with a food cart and u like this about to be $120.00 and she hands the cashier the coupons she ends up paying $70, u be like I need that kind of woman because u know she good at budgeting..

Then u have those other broke broads digging through they purse looking for enough change to buy a loaf of bread

after the talk about it, yeah.

I've been in a relationship where somebody spends all of their money and then they're looking at yours, all the while acting like you don't make enough.

And saying "ours"

nope. :francis:

Im not understanding. Almost everybody i graduated with is in debt with student loans. 15k is not that bad. By that logic ppl shouldnt date until theyve paid off the loans??:mindblown:

As long as you have a plan and are actively attacking it. Whats the issue?

15k is also a car loan
Or medical procedure

$15K in credit card debt or student loans/car because there’s a difference.

Not everyone has stellar credit and when you live hand to mouth sometimes that ain’t a priority. HOWEVER if he ain’t trying to make his situation better and carelessly over spending on shoes clothes etc but borrowing money for the rent and utilities then absolutely not. That’s a bad character trait that will only get worse once he’s making more money. If I was the girl I’d leave before he gets them evicted.

Good points. Its all about if a person is actually trying to improve situation and if they need help and structure....that they are willing to follow what u telling them.

Also...we gotta look at any habits especially expensive habits....including going out to eat, clothes, needing to stay fresh, going out to clubs/bars, dating and funding all that, hooking up and funding all that, gambling/lottery, drinking, substances, online shopping, traveling, entertainment venues, etc. Too many expensive habits can hurt u.
