Let me rephrase...I'd be stuck with HALF of his debt because in our state the spouse is responsible for half whether you knew about it or not. I'd be stuck with HIS $10,000 student loans, HIS $15,000 credit card debt (which he has never told me about and I only found out because I snooped! He tells me that one card is completely paid off and there's only a couple hundred on the other!), his $10,000 bike loan payment and several other things.
