[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I would not.  My DH had 70k of student debt when we first met and was paying it down very slowly.  I worked really hard to pay mine off quickly, so I had none.  I wanted to save up and pay his off quickly, he didn’t want to do that.  It’s honestly the biggest thing we fought about and now that he got the loans forgiven we finally don’t really argue about money.  200k of debt is insane for undergrad. [/quote]

This is OP.  I am 25 years old.  I graduated from UVA at the age of 20 and have been working at Apple for the past five years, making around 250K/yr as a SWE.  I have about 500K in the bank.  I live rent free in a condo that my parents own and I don't have to pay for food because I eat breakfast/lunch/dinner with my aunt & uncle who live in the same building as I do.  I don't mind paying off her student loan debt if she is "the one".  My mother was a retired MontCo public school teacher.[/quote]

I wrote the long response at 13:51.

I would tell her to break up with you. You aren't self supporting - rent free with no food costs? At 25? Grow up and support yourself. [/quote]
lol.. no, I would tell her to mooch off of him. He has it suuuuuper easy.

Then, I would tell her that if/when she has a kid and wants to be a sahm, he should pay for it because clearly, he's fine with not standing on his own two feet even though he can.

My god.  I was feeling sorry for OP earlier.[/quote]
