This is not what I would be looking for in a partner. If you brazenly break contracts you willingly entered one day what’s to make anyone believe their contract with you is nonnegotiable.

“babe, I love you it’s okay to default on your loans.” A week later, “what do you mean my deposits aren’t insured, it’s because of lazy people who steal public services. All that spam they steal has to be at least 1,000 times what my wife’s liberal arts education student loan she’s defrauding.” Your friend needs to acknowledge shitty human behavior and accept that as she accepts the non validity of her student loan contract.
A contract that you were pressured into as minor without even understanding the full consequences should not weigh you down your entire life.

Dunno about that. Many people have a hostile view of large institutions. They view scamming them as getting what they deserve.
Yet and still, the person that keeps their word is more likely to continue doing so, than a person who considers their word amendable because big corporations.
