Debbie, thanks so much for your post...

I have no idea helping him with his debt (once we are married). But for now...I don't think I should be the one working 2-3 jobs to put him through school. I we were married - it would be a different story.

And he has $20,000 in cc debt. The cards are cut up and he does not use them anymore. Should I help him contribute to this debt monthly? When he graduates and we get married - I know we are going to attack the $20,000 in CC debt aggressively because it is the only cc debt that we will have.

Until then, do you think I should contribute at this time (being unmarried)?

I just don't think it is smart. I feel like I should save everything I can (for the wedding and house)...and every few months I will give him $500-$1000 to help him pay rent and utilities when he is a little strapped...that is what I am doing now.
