I bought a house with my ex in 2013. I was in the mortgage industry and my mom is in real estate. We did 100% of the work to get this house for a great price, newly renovated, before it hit market.

My ex was the only one one the title (for the same reasons as yours) I paid half of everything in the years we were together- mortgage, utilities, insurance.. everything.

One day he kicked me pulled the rug from under me, kicked me out onto the streets and moved in a coworker. He even tried to steal my dog.

A year later he sold the house, made 75k, took his new girlfriend to Europe, proposed, and had a wedding on my dime. I sure could've used upwards of 40 thousand dollars (half of sale profit) to restart my life.. but instead I spent multiple years after trying to rebuild it.

Please don't EVER blindly trust your partner in financial situations. Protect yourself NOW. Please remember without him you'd still have 35k in savings, your friends, family, and job. You've changed your world to revolve around his.

Also remember, his friends are not yours. Fuck what his BeSt FrIeNd thinks.
