I went to Austria, Mexico, Uganda twice for medical missions, took a selfie with a giraffe in Kenya, swam with dolphins in the India ocean off the coast of Zanzibar, was touched by a silver back gorilla in Uganda, went on a safari, went to Haiti for a mission trip, and went to Bali to see on of my best friends get married.

You would be falling into the same trap as women who marry a man thinking they can change him.

Some back ground, I am married. 

If you have owned and used the home as your principal residence for periods totaling at least two years during the five year period ending on the date of the foreclosure, you may exclude up to $250,000 (up to $500,000 for married couples filing a joint return) from income.

Before this, it was a custom that married Austrian women did not work outside the home.

Hm. ok, well it's not like we planned to be engaged long anyway. there's a possibility of him getting deployed to Japan, and if we're married I'd be able to go with him.

We also need to watch out for zealots of any extreme who are just wanting to get attention or who are wanting to watch the world burn.There is a commercial on the television, I won't mention the company, but it states, "No matter the condition of the economy, people are still getting married, families are still having children, and people are still creating community."

I'm not sure if a married couple would have similar credit scores?

Also, my wife has large graduate school loans, and I attempted to get umbrella insurance on our former primary residence in MA when we moved out earlier this year, (currently living abroad) and was denied based on her history specifically with those loans before we got married- there have not been any credit issues for either of us since we have been married- me never any.
