Why do it have to affect the co-signer when its your debt?

Because the cosigner guaranteed the to pay the loan if you do not. You fail to make a payment and the lender will be looking at the cosigner for the payment. You not only have an obligation to the lender who lent you the money but to the cosigner who also signed his name to the loan agreement.
