I feel that I deserve this disgusting feeling in my stomach and my spouse doesn't deserve to live with that. I have made it this far so I think I can tough it out for a year and a half more and be done with this nonsense. I know I have chosen the dangerous path but I have faith that I can do this get back on track. I recommend not getting into debt in the first place. If you don't have the cash to buy it then you really don't need it. I have been living with this for 4 years and will be done paying off my debt in a year and a half.

I came clean to my wife, and we made a plan together to pay off the debt and get our lives back on track. Now, however, my wife doesn't trust me and it's making us both miserable. I don't know what to do. I have unfortunately made this mistake. I came clean to my wife, and we made a plan together to pay off the debt and get our lives back on track.

On the otherhand a hidden savings account might not be a bad idea if your spouse has problems managing their money.

It is pretty sad to look at those Google referrals sometimes and see the things people are searching for. Things like the one you mentioned above, or others: <em>If I divorce my husband will I still get half the tax rebate? or Help me with my foreclosure</em> Like you say - communication is key, and hiding debts from your spouse is never a good idea. Personally I'm a horrible liar anyway - so i would never get away with it. Oh, and taking money out of your 401k is almost never a good idea - so yeah - don't do that.
