Bankruptcy Details

So some of you expressed concern in your comments on my last post and I wanted to write this post to assure you all that I did not suddenly throw my education out the window and go with love only.

NotMexican told me about filing for bankruptcy very early in our relationship. His ex-wife cheated on him, left him and took all of his money with her. (I'm sure karma will reap plenty of rewards on that).

Anyway, NotMexican has a fantastic lawyer helping him through this and my main concern is not so much the bankruptcy but what happens after and how it will affect me.

Will he get a good job in Boston? Will he get into law school? How will we pay for law school? How will his bankruptcy affect my credit, getting an apartment, etc etc?

I shouldn't be as concerned as he has been preparing for this, but I haven't. I've never not had money. I've never been in debt. I always have my parents to back me up should I need them.

As for the ring, well I knew where to go in Boston to get the best deal... and yes I paid for the ring. NotMexican has already paid me almost half-way back so I'm not concerned... and hopefully you guys won't judge that.

And as for marriage, it sure ain't gonna happen without counseling. I constantly have to reassure NotMexican that I won't cheat on him... and well you all know my track record with this blog... so clearly both of us need the counseling.

Basically, he is the guy for me. I'll never get to be a Real Housewife of Boston, but I will have a wonderful, hard-working, loyal, God-fearing husband.
