Who was he living with when you’ve met? A friend? Roommate? Relative? You said he lived in someone’s house as a favor from someone and he was told to leave. Then you both got a place together. Are you both on a lease? Or just you?
He was separated for three years. The divorce finalized while we were together and before we got engaged. He was living on his own when we first started dating. The debt he had accumulated I found out was his own debt that his father handed back to him that he wracked up over the years on credit cards. When his father lost ALL His wealth and money, he handed back to my husband 50-60K in credit card debt. Apparently, his ex was paying it for him????? She stopped paying the cards after he left her, and he had to declare bankruptcy because of the debt. I only just found this out recently. Before we married, he made it seem like she was to blame for his bankruptcy and that huge debt. He still claims she is responsible for the bankruptcy. He had said to her while they were in the middle of the divorce, "pay off this debt and you can have the house my parents bought". Something like that. I don't exactly recall. The details have changed since we first met. He wasn't exactly forthcoming with the fact that the 50-60K in debt WAS HIS.
