If that's the argument, wait til you are old and alone, THEN sell the collection and hire hookers to keep you company until you die. :D

First off I agree, if your that worried about it then definetly Prenuptial Agreement. Otherwise as someone else said if you go in thinking your getting a divorce...you probably will.

I got married 2 years ago and as someone else mentioned, my girlfriend at the time knew how much geeky stuff I had and as noted its just who I am...so if you cant accept it then this wont work. She respects my hobby, but at the same time has zero interest in it and just thinks I spend to much money, but at the same time she knows it makes me happy so leaves me alone. I make jokes all the time about if the house were to burn down, she better get running because Im grabbing my stuff, lol so she knows
what some of these pieces mean to me.

The other thing with marriage is its all about "us" not "me or I" anymore, that took me a long time to get over. I was always used to being by myself and just thinking for myself, so if anything you might have to scale things back some unless you have a job/career that can support the habit without making the wife to angry. Alot of times I have to look at my finances and decide if I can afford it considering the wife might be planning a family vacation or something like that.

Again though if your that worried about it Prenuptial Agreement, enough said.
 
Laws in each state vary, but in some states you keep the property you owned "before" the marriage. Also, in some states even when you are married if it is a "gift" to you it is yours. For example, a Xmas present.
 
OR she could not let go of her family and instead of devoting herself to you and your kids, she constantly put her family first even though you tried like hell to give her the security and comfort she wanted.
Was she overly tied to her family *before* you got married? :stick
I ask because I ignored many a red flag before marrying my ex. So I take full responsibility for marrying the wrong man for me...
 
No it would not. And that is why people have to choose their mates with a great deal more care...IN MY OPINION.

I have been through a divorce. And I am re-married. Although I love my wife and would not trade her for the world, my own opinion is that divorcing my first wife is far and away the very worst act of betrayal I have ever performed.

I did not feel that way then because I did not place the impotance on a vow that I do now. My love for my current wife has made me understand that. But I wish I understood it before I married my first wife as I would not have married her. She was a good person and did not desrve my going in to the marriage light-heartedly.

So, actually, I guess I should be a little more understanding of those who take divorce more lightly than I do because I used to be one of them.

But I am certainly NOT anymore.

So you're saying it would be ok to raise two bastard children as your own and you'd be fine with that? I'm of the mind, fool me once shame on you...fool me twice shame on me. And I sure as hell wasn't going to raise the other doosh's kids.

My ex is the one that broke her vows. And a marriage takes both sets of vows to work. If there's no trust, there's no marriage.

Now, the ex I knew for years before we started dating and then we dated for about 3 years before getting married. The marriage lasted almost 7 years.

My current wife and I met on my birthday April 2nd and were married on July 13th of the same year. And that was 11 years ago this July.
 
l dont believe that is it really true.because last year my friend who worked for my dad went threw a divorce, he was married just over a year and he had to pay here half of what his house was worth and he paid that house off before he met her and she was awarded half.so why did that happen.

He had a crappy lawyer.:yess:
 
I don't know if it's been mentioned, but stuff you own before you get married is not marital property. Only stuff you acquire after the marraige constitutes marital property for division on dissolution of marraige.

But she is entitled to a share in increase in value of non-marital property. Ex- You own a house before you get married. Let's say it's worth $100. You get a divorce and the house is now worth $120. She gets half of that increase ($10). But you keep your house.

It's like this in most states.

l dont think so,we just have stupid marriage laws here.and it gets better,my buddy who twice my age hes 42 and anyway he has a large 6 acre acreage and a nice house his girlfriend lives with him for 3 years now and shes crazy and anyway when they break up she can take half his farm and there not even married, it doesnt matter if your married or not if your together for more then a year the same laws apply as marriage apparently,that what people keep telling him everyone is saying she will take everything, he just inherited the farm from his dad even tho he already lives there so we will see what will happen.

I am absolutely not judging anybody's threshhold of tolerance. But to me, her getting pregnant by another man would not be grounds for divorce. If she wanted to divorce me, I could not stop that. And there are limits to my tolerance as well. And I am not ashamed to admit that my dedication to the marriage could easily end up making a fool of me. But I absolutely understand that there are other levels of tolerance than my own and a great many of those levels are plenty high enough.
