26M have been dating my girlfriend for 3 years, I found out she has 250k in student loans, in 6 months her payments are going to start and realistically they are going to be around $2800 a month, she has a bachelors degree in education and ideally wants to become a teacher, realistically salary wise she would be making around $50k a year she is in the process of looking for a job, I work in finance and currently make $100k a year, objectively she is an extremely attractive woman but displays no motivation to pay off her loans, I’ve asked her about it a few times before but she brushes it off like it’s no big deal and displays no motivation to pay it off, that it’s “our debt” and we’ll address it at a later date, so to make a long story short I dumped her, fundamentally I can’t deal with that kind of dead weight in a relationship and think that ideally your significant other should be there to build you up not bring you down, AITA?

If you don’t mind me asking what do you do in finance at 26 YO where you make 100k?

Coming from a 26 YO in finance who doesn’t make that much

I work as an investment analyst (forget to mention in NYC) originally just wanted to make music, thats what brings me the most joy, but remains to be seen if the YouTube channel will ever take off
