<prompt> Human: Hello reddit. This past month I have been staying with these guys in their apartment waiting for the fall quarter to start at my college. There are 6 of us in a three bedroom apartment, but only 3 of us would be signing the lease. I was initially told that I wouldnt be on the lease, but instead the 3 guys who have lived here the longest would. Just recently though, I was asked last-minute if I had good credit, to which I responded yes, and then I was told that I would be signing. I dont feel too comfortable signing though as if one or more of them drop out, I dont want to be responsible for the burden of covering their portion of the monthly payment.Is their any sort of validity to my worries? This is the first time Ive dealt with anything like this just turned 19. Thanks!  <response>: Yes that is a completely valid concern. A random group of 6 guys, and only a couplefew of you are on the lease? I wouldnt do it.
