I am very much a realist, and know what can happen, but I feel like even if we got married tomorrow there is still no guarantee and we could still have the issue of splitting assets. I don't know...I just felt hurt by their reaction - maybe I am just being too sensitive  |
No you are just being human, we have a tendency to expect our friends to react the same way we would in that situation. Unfortunatly it just does not always work out that way and someones feelings get hurt. As far as buying the house goes follow your heart but protect your wallet, make sure everything is documented by an attorny it is best for both of you. Good Luck.
