That's nice, but…
Today, my husband announced the reason he had been working since much is because he had secretly paid off my tens of thousands of student loans. I then had to tell him I'm leaving him for his best friend. FML

Break it off
Today, I found out that my fiancée wishes she'd never said yes when I proposed, as she is in love with another man, and has been hiding their relationship for years. FML

Forgive student debt now!
Today, I was watching a TV show about people with shopping addictions. One girl was $15,000 in debt and I thought how horrible it would be to live with that. Then I realized that I'm in medical school and currently $135,000 in debt. At least they have something to show for their debt. FML

Babe, I have something to share…
Today, my wife waited until we’d been married for two weeks to tell me she has a mountain of credit card debt that she’s been hiding from me. This explains why she insisted the mortgage and car be in my name, her credit score is so low that it’s almost a double digit FML

Treat yourself
Today, my fiancée bought me a luxury getaway to the Maldives, complete with a five-star hotel and first-class plane tickets. Too bad she used my credit card, with all the money I was saving for our wedding. FML

Aw come ON now. If that was the only way she could pay for her education, you should be proud that she did so and didn't just sit around and be a bum. (Assuming, of course, that she's working.) If she's expecting you to pay for it all, that's one thing. But I'd guess she's going to be doing it herself, just maybe needing a little help here and there. OVer the next 50 years.....

I'm a college student who is going into more and more debt. My boyfriend still wants to marry me regardless. Money < Love

She went to school.. be happy she has an education. Not everyone has a rich mommy and daddy who can pay for their college. Doctors, Dentists & Lawyers had more student loans than that... so for all we know she could be a big top dog in a few years.

Does she have an actual education? Does her job pay her a good return? My wife school loans are 180k, but she earn 4 times that a year so I don't complain..lol Just make sure she does not stick you with them..

Why has this not come up before now. Maybe it's just me but if I was planning to marry a person, I would hope that things like this would have been discussed way before I got down on one knee.

Yea break it off unless she's in a career where she'll be able to cover that. Otherwise even though you aren't responsible, you will be paying it. IE attorney, doctor, engineer (really pushing it!) yea, stick with her. Social worker or school teacher (unless she's got a Phd), run as fast as you can. It's not about being a gold digger, or caring too much about money, it's about do you still want to be in a shit-hole apartment barely making ends meet when you are 35, only to have her leave you once you get the shit paid off, because that's what happens a lot of the time.

Okay. I'm tired of reading comments like this. OF COURSE she has an amazing degree for some profound career. no normal college education would cost nearly that much unless you go to medical school, law school, etc. so she can easily make that much money in a year or two and live off of him and pay all of the debt off in 2 years time and then live lavishly. it's BS assumptions that it'll take 10-30 years to pay off such debt and assume he will pay because he's male that pisses me off. And OP, stop being a baby about this. at least she's doing something with her life and not sitting on her ass waiting for you to support her. I don't even consider this to be an FML.

As far as I know you aren't obligated to pay it. That's according to Suze Orman, so who knows if it's true.

Hey, she told you. That's more than most people would do.

thats jokes. some people don't get this: its that when you marry some one every asset and liability is split 50/50. so that means you have to pay 62,500!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
