Ok let's see.

"I came into the marriage (of 4 years) with a townhouse, a car, and my dog. I had no debt, except for mortgage and car payment. None, zilch, nada."
Was the mortgage on the Townhouse? How much was left to pay off?

"He had alot of debt. We sold my TH and he traded in my car on something else. We had a house built, small but nice on a 1.5 acres and bought furniture, landscaping, fencing, etc. So now it is MY fault we have dept."

You both are equally responsible for the debt from expenses of your house.

"He says I have doubled the amount of debt he came into the marriage with and he wants it PAID OFF now! He was right beside me on every purchase we made for the house. It is not like I've been out buying clothes, jewelry, or other things just for myself."

Perhaps you guys really do need to pay off the debt. It is possible to get to deep in the hole to get back out. What are his spending habits?
