My W promised me that she'd stay in our marriage - if I'd help her with payments. I asked her for a WRITTEN commitment, and went ahead and paid the bills. She said since I asked for a WRITTEN commitment, that was too much, and backed out on it. AFTER I paid the bills.
Since she moved out, she is now $30,000 in debt, buying expensive furniture for new apartment, etc; when I married her three years ago, I paid off about $30,000 of her debt. She still is spending money like crazy, and in about 3-6 months, she's going to be completely unable to keep up with bills.
I'm not saying your experience is the same as mine, but money will NEVER replace anything real.
