Called me this morning telling me about the new car we're getting (we're trading my truck in and it'll be a wash, so we don't have to put any money down and it'll cut the payment in half)...it would be in his name and under his credit.
Ummm... hang on here Time. Okay, I get what you were saying earlier about this being his way to try and help solve some issues - that your payments will be cut in half so it will relieve some money stress possibly. However... was the truck in your name? And on your credit? I am VERY concerned about YOUR vehicle being under HIS name!! I'm not trying to scare you, but that means he could take it away from you! And it's doing absolutely nothing for your credit history. I fear that given his erratic actions as of late, this could be very harmful to you as it puts you more under his 'control'. What are your thoughts around that. Is there not a part of you that is already registering this as a concern? There has to be... you specifically mention it so your subconscious is processing it.
Please excuse if I'm not understanding a bigger picture - do you have another car that is in your name? I think it's very very important that at least one of your vehicles is.
I agree with everything PG said. If the truck is in your name or both of your names, DO NOT put the new vehicle in his name only. Period.
