Still we are far better off than the couples we talk to in the same neighborhood. Some of the things I have heard just make my head spin.I held her off for the first 5 years of marriage ... I think it was more than most men could do in my situation. She wanted to buy while she still had $30k in cc debt most of it at 21-23% on about 10 different store cards! YIKES! I finally got that down to where I could get it all on one 4.5% fixed and then a 0% fixed for 18 months and pay it off before I would agree to a house.Mostly cheap nike dunk sb heels for $50 , it required being an obstinate ass (born to that job, eh?) that just said "no, because I said so." I had to take her checkbook away and other things that got me called "jerk", "ass", and many other things.
