Can you marry someone and not have your bad credit affect their credit?
Credit scores are individual and your marriage to someone with a lower credit score than yours will not affect your credit score. Credit scores are based on how much debt you owe versus how much credit you have available, how you make your monthly payments, etc. It has nothing to do with your spouse's credit. That said, their poor credit may affect your ability, as a couple, to get the best rates on credit that you seek together, e.g. if you attempt to buy a house together. It wouldn't impact your personal credit, but it would impact the loan offer you receive.
