    Wonder how long it will last ?

    So is he going to pay the loan off as promised then ?

    If I were you I'd get counselling for low self-esteem.

    Thanks for your help guys.

    An update is that we have now got back together, and i have forgiven him for everything and trust him fully

    Ahh. Its always nice when the ending is like a fairytale.

    We are all feeling warm and fuzzy for Easter.

    See you again in May/June when he has sold your Mother and your pet Chihuahua and you need to re-claim them :)

    If you are both back together and are happy then maybe now is the time to cover yourself for this loan get him to sign something/ record conversation with an independent witness saying that this was a loan and amount he's agreed to pay back to you etc. Before you get carried away with being a couple just remember how you felt when you first posted, 7 years + of somebody elses debt around your neck,"financially and mentally draining and struggling to make ends meet" also no way have anything in joint names as his debt will be your debt and they will come chasing for it from you, without sounding harsh to say you trust him already is very silly indeed, love is blind. Please proceed with caution and slowly let him regain your trust over a long period of time.

    Look out the window can you see the pig flying?
    By the way who will be making the next loan repayment and the one after that etc etc?

    Sometimes you have just got to laugh at some of these threads.
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.
