[quote=Anonymous][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’m Asian and you sound Asian. You are shameful. Such a man child I bet raised like a little entitled prince.

This girl needs to run from you. You will always be a beta dependent on your family. Pathetic. [/quote]

This is OP.  I received a full-ride 4 years academic scholarship to UVA, tuition + room/board.  I am making 250k/yr at Apple, and I am financially independent.  I stay at my parents' condo because it is sitting empty and they are always traveling.  They also have their own house.  I am saving money and responsible with money.  What is your problem?

The young lady I am dating regretted her decision to attend WF because she got caught up in the moment.  She is a tutor on weekends to make extra money to pay off the student loan.  She is still living with her parents, drives a 15 years old car so that she can pay off the student loans faster.  She was very honest about her student loan situation after our 3rd date, and yes, she is very pretty.[/quote]

aww.. OP, you sound sweet actually.  I hope you are not a troll.

I think in this circumstance, it is OK to develop a serious relationship with her.  She regrets the financial decision to have taken such a big loan, and is trying to pay it down more quickly.  If you do get serious and get married, you have a very high salary and no loans to pay off yourself; together with a wife who has learned to be frugal, you guys will do absolutely fine.
