<prompt> Human: Hello everyone. I am a senior in college. Ive always been good with money and work while I go to school. My girlfriend is also in college. I wouldnt say she is bad with money but her situation has lead her to a lot of debt. Some being credit cards. She has a maxed out credit card of 4K and the interest is about to kick in and it would be something like 800 a month in interest. She asked me to pay it off so we could avoid this. Im a little aprehensive about giving her basically all my money. I dont really feel like she expressed any appreciation but thats beside the point I guess. Ive never given someone so much money before. Is there any reason I shouldnt under the assumption shell pay me back? How do I go about this responsibly?Im sorry I failed to mention that in January she will be getting paid 2500 a month as a research associate.Edit2: hey thank you everyone for coming through. I really appreciate all the great advice and helping me clarify this. One redditor mentioned the 17 interest is annual. So it may be like 68 a month rather than 780 a month. But there will be a retroactive charge of 780 if it is not paid.  <response>: Dont.
