    Speaking personally and from fairly bitter experience, men can end up in the s**t just as easily as women! (hence my sig).

    And with us, the debt was a joint thing, I just didn't know how bad it was because I let the wife do the finances. Not quite burying my head in the sand, just very naievely believing that when she told me everything was okay, everything was okay! Sadly, it took her leaving me before I found out just how bad it really is :eek: .

    Tips for the day: don't bury your head in the sand, and make sure both "partners" do the finances.

    you will find that they start acting and behaving like the age group they teach. Mine teaches 5-8 year olds, I keep asking her to teach 16-18 year olds

    She who stills remains nameless enjoys CBBEEs and qoutes numberjacks regularly on trips every 5 min she asks are we there yet (rewrote the last bit has it sounded rude) Where as if she taught 16-18 year olds who's minds would be full of se...................Sorry I will not go there

    So you think lifes difficult for you. try being married to a teacher and be in debt:0
