In her post, she said her boyfriend told her they could get married in around 3.5 years and suggested that both of them start saving money every month. According to her, the boyfriend planned to save RM1,500 monthly while she would contribute RM600. However, she later found out the savings were not only for their wedding. “He said the money we save isn’t just for the wedding, but also for a house deposit,” she wrote. The woman added that her boyfriend hoped they could eventually apply for a joint loan in the future so they could afford a bigger and more comfortable home together. **“He said later we can do a joint loan to get a more comfortable and bigger house, even though I told him I’m okay with a simple house.”** Unsure about the idea, she turned to social media to ask others whether she should agree to the plan. ## Some warned her to be careful The post quickly gained traction online, with many netizens sharing their opinions about joint housing loans and finances in relationships. Some strongly advised her against taking a joint loan at all. ![](https://cdn.weirdkaya.com/media/netizen-comment-Msian-Woman-Says-BF-Aims-To-Get-Bigger-House-Through-Joint-Loan-In-Future-Netizens-Warn-Her-To-Think-Twice4.png)Screenshot via [Threads](http://www.threads.com/@miloaislife/post/DYKU-o-j5Vb) Another commenter, who claimed to be a banker with 20 years of experience, also warned her to think carefully. ![](https://cdn.weirdkaya.com/media/netizen-comment-Msian-Woman-Says-BF-Aims-To-Get-Bigger-House-Through-Joint-Loan-In-Future-Netizens-Warn-Her-To-Think-Twice1.png)Screenshot via [Threads](http://www.threads.com/@miloaislife/post/DYKU-o-j5Vb) Some also encouraged her to discuss difficult possibilities before making any financial commitment together. ![](https://cdn.weirdkaya.com/media/netizen-comment-Msian-Woman-Says-BF-Aims-To-Get-Bigger-House-Through-Joint-Loan-In-Future-Netizens-Warn-Her-To-Think-Twice2.png)Screenshot via [Threads](http://www.threads.com/@miloaislife/post/DYKU-o-j5Vb) ## Others say it’s normal nowadays However, not everyone saw the boyfriend’s plan as a red flag. Some netizens pointed out that with rising property prices and the increasing cost of living, joint loans have become common among younger couples. One commenter said many people were focusing too much on the “50/50 husband” narrative instead of the financial reality of buying a home today. **“A joint loan is just to get a more comfortable and bigger house. Living nowadays is expensive.”** ![](https://cdn.weirdkaya.com/media/netizen-comment-Msian-Woman-Says-BF-Aims-To-Get-Bigger-House-Through-Joint-Loan-In-Future-Netizens-Warn-Her-To-Think-Twice3.png)Screenshot via [Threads](http://www.threads.com/@miloaislife/post/DYKU-o-j5Vb) While some believed couples should work together financially as a team, others felt that mixing finances too early could create complications in the future.
