A bankruptcy that is sudden isn’t actually sudden.

He was hiding his financial woes from you.

A man who is hiding information this important from his girlfriend isn’t trustworthy.

Finances are remarkably fundamental in a relationship.

Without good finances, relationships fall apart.

He wasn’t transparent with the state of his finances with you, and this is never a good sign.

Not only has he demonstrated that he is untrustworthy, he has demonstrated that he isn’t financially responsible.

These two factors profoundly impact a relationship, jeopardizing its health and well-being.

When he was courting you, he gave you the impression that he was financially solvent.

He took you out on dates and made it seem as though he was good with his money.

Clearly, this isn’t the case.

If you do some research on his background, there is a strong possibility that he has had a history of financial problems.

Bankruptcy doesn’t occur overnight.

There is a buildup of bad behavior that leads to bankruptcy.

Before he met you, he had risky spending habits.

He was buying stuff he couldn’t afford to live a lifestyle he couldn’t afford.

That is how he got you to think that he was financially solvent as he was courting you.

You never suspected that all the expensive dinner dates he was taking you on were being charged to a credit card he couldn’t afford.

You never suspected that the overseas trip he took you on and hotel room he paid for was on a credit card he couldn’t afford.

All of it was a sham designed to impress you.

Now, the sham has all come to a head and he can no longer pretend that he is financially solvent.

The creditors and bill collectors applied the pressure and he had no choice but to file for bankruptcy.

He expects you to forgive all the smoke and mirrors, and the bankruptcy itself, on account of the fact that he wined and dined you in the past, and got you to become his girlfriend.

Don’t be fooled by this.

Remember how you became his girlfriend in the first place.

He misled you into thinking that he was financially solvent.

You were led to think that he had a handle on his finances.

You were led to think that a financially sound future awaited you, if you were to date him.

None of this was true.

It was all smoke and mirrors.

Now that he has filed for bankruptcy, don’t fall into the trap of thinking that you owe him for how well he courted you or has treated you as his girlfriend.

None of this was done with pure intentions.

It was all a lie.

He made you think that he was a viable romantic partner, but beneath it all, he had a history of poor financial behavior with piling debt.

Needless to say, he is not the guy he led you to believe he was.

You shouldn’t stay in a relationship with a person who has exhibited such deceit and irresponsibility.
