My boyfriend asked me to co-sign a car loan for him...?
....and frankly, I don't even want to go there. Especially since we've been once again / off again every couple of years.
I don't want to get stuck with a payment & bad credit if we split up again.

What should I tell him?

Sounds like you already know the answer... and I definitely think it is a smart one! A gf of mine co-signed for her bf and now they are no longer together, he sold the truck and kept the money and she never saw a dime from him!! It is not a wise decision to co-sign if you can not guarantee the relationship is stable and it obviously is not if you are on again/off again all the time!!


Tell him no! You don't feel comfortable taking on a huge commitment not knowing where your relationship is going, and if he is late on payments or misses them all together, it comes back on you. That is a huge responsiblity to take on for someone else and you don't want to sign up for something that could be potentially credit ruining!!

Never, never, never co-sign for anyone that you are not married too.

I look at credit everyday and see many repossessions and when I ask people what happened over 85% say that was someone that I co-signed for.

DO NOT SIGN THE LOAN FOR YOUR BOYFRIEND. IF HE DOESN'T PAY, THE CREDITOR/FINANCIAL INSTITUTION WILL COME AFTER YOU FOR THE REMAINING CONTRACTUAL AMOUNT. DO NOT DO IT.

I'D JUST TELL HIM "NO" BECAUSE IF YOU CAN'T MAKE THE PAYMENT, THEN I HAVE TO...AND I DON'T HAVE IT!!!

tell him no, say you wouldn't want to be responsible for his car if he gets fired and defaults on a payment. it isn't your responsibility, if anyone should co-sign for him let it be his parents.

Just say no.


Steveo
Tell him to grow up or go live with his parents, find a job, but to live a life and leave you alone.


wendypan
tell him the truth, you don't want to do it. It's easy, to the point, and if he walks away then it's for the best.


THE Cupid HATER
Just tell him "No, because it's too much of a credit risk for me."


Joanna
NOOO!!!! DONT DO IT NO MATTER WHAT HE SAYS TO YOU!!!

NO, never co-sign. You are legally responsible if he defaults, and none of the benefits from the action.

Tell him "no I am not going to financially responsible for you making a car payment. I am sure that would ruin any chance of us having a relationship."
You know he is attempting to use you and congratulations for not falling for that one.

Nope, I wouldn't do it either if I were you. Tell him he needs to get his credit straightened out and finance it himself. Credit should be used as a tool to help you get things a lot easier, not to get you into debt IF you don't know what you're doing.

Frown & tell him that ur allready overextanded, then you don't have to worry about hurting his feelings if that's an issue.


heybulldog
Tell him to save up for a cash car.
it'll get better gas mileage if it is not dragging a payment book behind it.

Take what would have been the payments and put in the bank.
No payments =cash in the bank.

Credit is a tool alright. It's a tool that makes banks rich and you poor.
