School loans are why I'm not engaged right now. I figure my next academic excercise will set me back a good 60-70K. If I were married, technically, she'd be responsible for half of that. I don't think that's really fair, so right now, at least, I'm not married. When school's done with, yeah, we'll probably make it legal.
I've heard people say that when they are married, they throw all their bills together in one pot and combine their paychecks in the bank. Then they take out the $$$$ and pay the necessary bills first, regardless of "who" they belong to. That is fine, again, I think if you are married (or with set plans for that). I think that if a guy is willing to pay your bills like that, that he should be thinking in the long-term-settle-down-marriage-thought.
