You have been given some great advice. I would not fault your friends for them questioning it... after all.. if they WERE NOT real friends, they would not have cared enough to even mention it. They are looking out for your well being. That being said, I would ask myself.... would I co-sign a loan for my boyfriend? is he of the upmost integrety that he would make sure I am protected? Basically what you are doing is co-signing a loan and you have to consider the integrity of your boyfriend that if things went south for the two of you that you could sit down and CONSTRUCTIVELY settle with how to handle the house.. Are you able to talk out things in a normal manner? Use your GUT feelings.. they are the best in this situation. Do NOT use your heart... You know him better than anyone.. If you KNOW he would never allow you to be brought down in case of a breakup... then see an attorney and write up a real-estate pre-nup as someone else suggested and make both YOU and your boyfriend are covered and comfortable in it. Good luck sweetie
