Finally Disclosed my DMP to my fianc!e

Enough was enough.

After nearly a year of rushing the post upstairs and not taking phone calls in front of her I had enough.

I sat her down, told her I had some serious debt and that I was sorry etc. She was amazing, she asked how much ist was. "Around 10k" i said.

She almost laughed! She was telling me it's not a lot, she has around the same (managed really well unlike me!) and that I was silly for not telling her sooner.

I am so grateful to her for her support. We are expecting a baby in December so really need to get a handle on my finances in the coming months.

Hoping to get some support on here to help us through and pick up some tips along the way!

Will post more soon but i'm at work.
