ie my debt repayments at the mo are £400 a month but if i were to get a gf (yes gf not bf before anyone says owt!) would any of u cut that down to say £300 thus saying ur spend on ur better half being £100 a month?

To be honest, when I was paying off my debt, I wouldnt have been able to afford to date - plus with two jobs I just didnt have the time. But I think that if I had met the right person, I would have been honest with them & we would have had to compromised. At the end, during this year, paying off my debt was more important to me, and that came first.
Now I have spare time & money - where are all the men? haha!!
I think it depends on if the relationship has staying power, I just wanted to sort my own life out first and be selfish. But that was just me, I had to do it.0 -
