Mortgage companies don't care if you have someone else paying off the mortgage, they want to see some serious capital coming in to write another mortgage for another home. It's almost impossible for the average person to do it. The best way for her would be to start a small corporation that purchases homes for "rental purposes" and then if she put the homes/mortgages under the corporation she MIGHT get it, but then again, the corporation would need to have been in business for several years.

@@katphish30true story (get a cuppa this will be a long one) - a cat gave birth in a neighbour’s canoe, the came from from a holiday and their dogs scared her off leaving her 4 newborn kittens alone. Their granddaughter, a classmate of my niece, suggested they were “Niece’s nanna’s cats” because my mother is known for helping people with their cats and rehoming strays. They came to to her, she contacted the cat rescue she works with, they took the kittens to an emergency foster and left us with a cat trap to hopefully catch Momma if she came back. Early hours of the same night they called my mother to say they caught her, she came back looking for her babies! We got her comfy in a cat crate, the next morning the rescue lady brought them back and Momma just took them all back no hesitation, I was sceptical cos the neighbours, well-meaning though they were, put the kittens in a carrier with a blanket that _stunk_ of dog, but no Momma was fine. Then literally in front of us the rescue lady got a call about another litter of kittens, without a mother, who needed help. She asked us if we would be open to fostering until they were old enough for rehoming, we agreed. It was such an experience seeing them litter train themselves watching their Momma, develop their own personalities then choosing names, etc. Finally they got to be 5 months of age, Momma had been spayed to prevent more kittens (but not before freaking us out with a false labour), the babies (3 boys, 1 girl), were all spayed/neutered and ready for new homes … Only for the rescue to turn around and tell us “we can only take the grey kitten, the mother and 3 black kittens will be euthanised because 23 can’t rehome black cats” … what the f*cking f-ck? We’d watched them grow from 3 weeks old to 5 months, we were attached, we loved them all, so we officially adopted Momma and all 4 babies, Momma and the babies will be 8 years old this year (she was a kitten herself), they’re all such characters and while they drive me nuts some days I wouldn’t change a thing. It’s hard but they are worth it.

@@LadyLeomon Your cat story sounds similar to mine. We already had a black cat named Scratchy (no, not after the Simpsons character.) Then, this mother cat started hanging around our house. She had three kittens, all three black, with white spots on their chests. They became Pepper, Sammy, and Stevie. (One boy, two girls.) So we had four. Mother cat then has another litter. They became Tigger, Felix, and Fidget. We rehomed Felix and Fidget, kept Tigger. The guys at my bus stop knew we had cats, so one night, they came to my house with a white and gray kitten and asked if it was mine. This became Powder. Pepper, Sammy, and Stevie were fixed by this point, Tigger wasn't. About a week before he was gonna be, he and Powder got busy, and at about seven months old, she gave birth to five kittens. We kept one, Jerry, and rehomed the other four. Then, two other cats started hanging around our house. They became Rusty and Gray. (I'd named them all. Once I got to Gray, I was done. I was like, "That's what color you are, that's your name!") This is very condensed, it actually happened the summer of '95 through the winter of '96-'97. So about a year and a half for us to take all of them in. But yeah, six of the nine were related. Four being brothers/sisters, (half brother in Tigger's case,) and then "marriage," (Tigger and Powder,) and Jerry being son/nephew. But omg, I will NEVER have more than two EVER again.

S2 NINE CATS!!! That's all I heard I don't understand why the parents are asking this of OP. Surely they had home insurance and could take that money and rent an apartment until they perhaps can rebuild or buy another home. Asking someone to sign onto a mortgage is suspicious. I think they want a free place to live while they pocket the insurance money

I understand not cutting her off but way off base too say it would be red flags if their partner was so up in arms over the comment 🙄

Story 1: It was a "joke" because none of the other people present bought into what she was trying to insinuate about OP and his friend. What if they hadn't shut her down, how much would it have escalated? Story 2: OP wants to ask the internet if she should co-sign a home mortgage for her "deeply in debt" boyfriend's parents where the house and paperwork would be in her name, so she would be liable for all payments and insurance for the next 30+ years. Clearly boyfriend is irresponsible with money, and as there's no marriage on the table then why should she be responsible for his parent's house...? Not seeing the rationality of this situation or why she needed to ask the internet if she should do it. I can only imagine what a pushover she has been with them already.

It's depressing and gross.

1) Drunk just reveals what someone really thinks so I hope she was just making a very bad joke. It is so sad for OP's friend to lose her pregnancy she was happy about and also learn how awful her boyfriend is. I think OP should speak with his fiancee about what he heard and how it made him feel. I hope the talk OP goes well. After update: It's good this turned out well and OP realized he was overreacting and everyone is on good terms again. It is especially nice the friends are now reaching out to do nice things for OP's friend. 2) Oh hell no, this is way to much to ask for. OP has already done enough and what is beyond reasonable. No way should OP set herself up for what could cause her financial disaster. NTA. After edit: If the house is in OP's name it still could go badly for her so I am glad she has decided against this. It's nice to let his sister stay, so long as there is a time line for when she needs to find her own place. After update: I'm glad OP got so much good advice and that she and her boyfriend are on the same page. It is too bad the dad is acting like this now. It's good OP found this out now before getting more tangled up with him.

Story 1. NTA. I'm sorry, but a drunken statement or not, it was a hazardous statement to make. That statement could have ruined his relationship with his fiance if she didn't know better. He had every right to be upset about this, and he wasn't wrong for his initial reaction. My first thought would be to cut someone out of my life if they said something, which is untrue about me that could potentially ruin my relationship. People need to realize that one can have a close and loving relationship with someone of the opposite sex without there being sexual desire. I have a close, caring, and platonic relationship with a guy I have known since college (32 years now), and my husband and his wife know there never has and never will be anything romantic between us. The four of us are now all close friends and get together often.

Like that shit can ruin their lives and also make it harder for victims of sexual assault to be believed when they finally feel brave enough to come forward.

S1) OP this trash being talked her thoughts out load. Being drunk isn't an excuse nor should it be. You have every right to not want someone who disrespects you and your relationship as a part of your marriage. Talk with the bride, make sure the other bride maids are present and speak honestly with her about what was said. This failure of a human being isn't a friend to either of you. Also OP only needs to talk to the bride about what was said first and foremost so that Ms. Green Eyed monster of the scum abyss doesn't twist things. Also Op owes this sad excuse of a waste of oxygen nothing. He owe's his bride cause that's who he's committed to. If someone's trying to project their insecurities onto OP's bride that's a them problem. If I heard someone I considered a friend said something false against my SO that person would no longer be a friend of mine especially if there's witnesses to this statement being said in poor taste. Disgustly uncalled for Reddit. Glad that OP talked it out with his bride. I'm also glad that immature little brat apologized. I'd be wary of her though. S2) It's not being helpful if they either can't or won't pay the morgage on time. Also he's just your boyfriend. Anything can happen. Honestly I'd be wary of helping them at all. They need to do something about their cats as well. The BF of the mom needs to be either told to accept what he's being offered or get nothing at all. Those are the only options.
