"These days, it&amp;amp;#8217;s not uncommon for someone to have $4,000 in credit card debt or $100,000 in school loans. If your partner brings that debt, and you have none&amp;amp;#133;good luck. Debt like that, while &amp;quot;normal&amp;quot; these days, can still be crippling and could lead to depression. Thing is, what if you fall in love with a guy and you don&amp;amp;#8217;t know his numbers? They&amp;amp;#8217;re not the kind of thing you share right away&amp;amp;#133;or even a year into dating. Or if you&amp;amp;#8217;re the one in debt, when do you share? There was another interesting stat from the Match survey I mentioned earlier today, and it was that 57% of single people said that debt could change their mind about a potential partner. And 74% of people said that more than $5,000 of credit card debt is a turn-off. But here&amp;amp;#8217;s the thing: you never have that kind of info early on. So I just want to hear from real life couples: when do you drop a debt bomb? How do you discuss? How does the conversation go? Is it upsetting?
