    wow wasn't that a great response. Guess I'm in the whoreslounge I should've expected a lame insulting response. Fact of the matter is yes, **** happens, but living your life like it's GOING to happen gets you no where. So again, if your going to enter into a marriage with the attitude whats mine is mine and whats yours is yours, then why get married? Why bother, I mean it's going to happen right?

    You want to insult me cause I love and trust my wife, go on. I have every confidence that she will never ever do anything like that to me, and if it does happen I'd like to look back and know I never lived my life in fear like someone was always out to get me. Guess what, I won't be that 50 year old cynical man who has a little money but lives with a dog and checks out the teenage girls. What is the point of living life if you can't take chances and try and trust other people. But hey, what do I know, I'm just a guy who happens to have "had my balls put in a jar".

    Also, there is no such thing as victim in this losing half divorce thing, guess what? The guy who is " the victim" should've known what he was getting into. Women seriously don't just wake up one day and go " gee, I want half his stuff and i hate him" without some type of prior warning or sign. I refer you back to the part of my orginial post when I said ppl need take the time to really reall get to know whomever they are going to marry. 1 year its a crap shoot, but whatever. Women are evil *insert sarcasm tone*

    my opening was a joke but this is all business

    this is a rather nieve statement. sorry to say it but i have witnessed first hand on MULTIPLE OCCASIONS women just do a complete 180. I'm glad that you and your wife have a great relationship and that you don't see it ever coming down to something horrific but i'm sorry people really do wake up an do a complete 180. you can take all the time you want but sometimes it just happens someone just decides that they want out.

    here's a scenario for you. you own a multi million dollar company that you built from the ground up prior to getting married. after 25 years of marriage she decides she doesnt love you anymore and wants a divorce. you didnt do anything and she didnt do anything but she wants half. if she gets it your business will be forced to shut down and drive you to bankrupcy. your telling me youd give it to her? all because you should have known what you were getting into even though you couldnt have seen this **** coming even if you were miss cleo.

    come on man get real there are all kinds of people out there and you never know who or what kind of crazy chic you will wind up with.

    PRENUPS FTMFW

    By all means if you feel a prenup will protect you then go on, get one. All that means in your situation that what ever the value of the company in question at the time of the marriage will be protected, your wife can (and will) argue that any additional income from said company after the signing of the prenup is fair game. After all, she was your wife and partner in that time correct? So in all fairness you could very well be faced with the same situation. Prenups are not rock solid and there are soooo many ways around it it's not funny.

    yes ppl can change their minds, but a little up front work (read: getting to know the character of a person) you can be reasonably sure that if things dont work out, the other person should be willing to work out a resonable agreement for splitting the assets. After 25 years of marriage you'd be hard pressed to argue that your wife would NOT be entitled money from your business. Now 1 year, ok that is a little fishy on the spouse part, but 25 years? Come on, you spend 25 years with somone and don't feel obligated to split assest with them then it wasn't a good marriage in the first place was it? Should've been ended long long before then. I feel a prenup is a slap in the face to the other person, your saying "i don't trust you to not screw me if things turn bad". I don't see why you should get married in the first place if you have that mind set, how can you take vows saying you'll be there and merge all aspects of your lives, except your money. What is that? You should just stay single and date. Cheaper isn't it, after all isn't that whats important, money?

    Yes, it very well is going to happen. Especially in this day and age. Marriage is no longer the institution it once was. Today, people are WAY more impatient then they were even 10 years ago. When people want something, they want it now. They don't have the patience to fix a marriage. They just get out of it.

    Great, if you trust your wife like that and you are confident that in the future she won't find someone else, have a mid-life crisis or take a vacation with her friends and figure out that you just don't cut it for her anymore then right on. But the fact of the matter is, it does happen, alot. I would like to know I looked back and didn't live life without chances as well. But watching out for your finances (that you had when you came into the relationship) isn't living in fear, it's living smartly.

    There isn't? Whatever bubble you live in, please send me an invite so that I can live in fantasyland with you. You say the guy should have known what he was getting into. Sorry man, most times it never works that way. People (girls and guys) will lie, lie, lie to get where and what they want. EVERY single person does it. The first 2 months of a relationship are the ones where you never see the real person they are. After 2 months you start seeing it unless they are good at hiding it. If they are, you have zero clue until you tie the knot and things changes. Other times, people just change. Happens every day, all the time. You may wake up one morning and figure out that you want to move to South America. People change, all the time.

    IF you are secure in your relationship, great. I'm sure you will never explain problems or hangups on this web forum. This thread isn't that important. But I will guess that they are there. They are always there. Because it's human nature to ALWAYS want more and better. So all anyone is saying is that when the other wants more and better, she doesn't take half your hard earned stuff with her when she goes.
