Relationships can get tricky when finances get involved.

Everyone has different dynamics and things work they way they do for most people but the tricky part comes in when things get rough.

This couple has been going through a rough patch.

Find out how they got in a fight over mortgage.

AITA for not co-signing my boyfriend’s refinancing of his mortgage when my name is not on the house and I have no legal recourse if something goes wrong?

My boyfriend is mad at me, even though he says he loves me, because I wouldn’t co-sign his remortgage deal on his house that my name is not and will not be on.

He’s been really unreasonable towards their financial situation.

He over extended his credit cards and wants to pay that off with the refinance, plus pay other bills.

I am not on the mortgage, just would be the person to guarantee the loan if he doesn’t pay.

She does her part and has been supportive!

I live in the house but pay bills to live there including electric, internet etc.

He works from home but it hasn’t been going well since Covid.

He hasn’t kept his word either…

He said he would get a job outside the house but hasn’t.

He blames me for his financial situation because in his mind I have caused this by not incurring his mortgage debt.

She’s wondering if she’s the bad guy!

Am I really the AH here?

Why is the boyfriend blaming the girl for his mistakes? That’s INSANE!
