My partner admitted being in debt yesterday

[Rage85]

We have been together for almost 8 years and my partner admitted to being in 6k debt (we aren't married)

It's ****** me off, more so the fact she hasn't been honest with me more than anything.

Anyone else had similar? Am I overreacting?

What has she spent 6k on? Was it spent over 8 years?

Pretty much and before we got together, she hasn't had parents to help her out with things either, it's just a accumulation of things things down the years I believe, it hasn't been spent on partying etc, but went to center parcs in the summer with the kids, if i knew she was in debt i would have suggested a much cheaper holiday.

If she told me from the start I could have helped more with it.

The debt is on catalogues and things like littlewoods, VERY, ARGOS, credit card, paypal.

Most of it is on paypal credit (2k) and 1k on credit card.

Thanks for the advice lads

We are going to work together to pay off the debt, new bathroom will have to wait.
