Be honest

Be honest in your communication with your partner about the issue. Do not hide any facts Google

Identify the root cause of the crunch, and whether it is temporary or long-term Google

Attack the problem, and not your partner. Deal with your issues later Google

Cut off all unnecessary spends. Each and every penny counts in saving Google

Pick up odd jobs in the meanwhile, no matter how small. Try and build a corpus Google

Review your financial history to gauge if you have any previous savings that can be used Google

Track all your expenses. Do not leave out anything, no matter how small a spend it seems Google

Next, mark out expenses that are high. See if you can cut down on them, at least for a few months Google

Create a debt repayment plan: Make sure you include all your outstanding credits and a streamlined way to pay all of it back Google

Take notes for the future. Do not repeat your mistakes. And remember, this too shall pass Google
