<prompt> Human: Hello! So, my boyfriend and I have been together for 2.5 years. We are planning to buy a house within the next 6 months or so. We have been renting together for about a year. He was planning to take out the mortgage in his name, but said that if I want he will put us both on the title because he wants it to be our house. I have never purchased a house before, and am pretty ignorant about the process. Is this a good or bad situation for me to be in? We are very happy, but of course I always wonder what if. Just want the situation that would be the best for both of us in the long run, regardless of what happens. Thanks! Edit: Thank you everyone! By all counts it seems that while it wouldnt be a bad thing for me per-se, if the bank would even allow it doubtful, but its just not the smartest thing to do overall so Ill discuss it with him. Thanks again!  <response>: Too many potential problems buying a house with someone you arent married to.As they say No spouse, no house.
