It depends. If I had loved this person since the start then I may still marry him. But if he loves me and he thinks of our future children then he should not ask me to marry him while he's not financially stable. He should pay all his indebtedness first before deciding to settle down with me. As a practical person, you should not only think of yourself or your love, you should also think of your future children.

Money vs. Love? mmmhmm.

Remember the vows - for richer or poor, sickness and in health. Money or health problems should not be a factor.

If a person aborts a baby because of "debt", burn that person at the stake.
If a person runs a credit check on you in secret before dating you, dump that person.
If a person is afraid of taken care of puppies because of cost, they shouldnt have a dog.

If your a human be a human, and not some person thinking about a person's debt over love.

Simple as that. If you don't love them for who they are, your not worth being loved in return, period.

This woman married the love of life before she died of cancer. My best friend sent this to me.

As wonderful as love is and can be, you can love someone without involving the law.

Love and taxes are not the same thing.

Love them, be with them, sign a prenup that legally protects you from any legal action resulting from his debt, be prepared to deal with collection calls that will threaten you (the new wife) with legal action too. Feel protected by your prenup and enjoy the life together. Make sure your prenup stands up to any new legislation that passes in the State you reside. Make sure you are versed in Common Law marriages if you choose not to be married by the State and stay together for a long time.

Depends on the debt. Student loan debt---yes. Gambling debt? Definite problem.
