[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. she doesn't want combined finances because she doesn't want to share her income.
2. I bought the house before we got married and I have a significant amount of equity in it. I don't see why I should "put her name on the house" if she isn't going to help pay the mortgage or repairs. If I die she will get the house but if she divorces me then I don't plan on giving her half of everything I put into the house prior to marriage. This is me talking bluntly I'm not this blunt about it otherwise. Its a premarital asset. [/quote]

While I understand you feel that the house is yours. If you both are living in it you both should be contributing. It's a huge red flag for both of you. In a marriage it should not be my money and his money. She should not have her income in only her account either.

By the way you don't get to decide what she get's in the divorce unless there was a prenup. Judge decides. Given you have gone into the marriage with those thoughts, good luck.[/quote]

yes, there was a prenup.
Also, if I was a woman I'm sure everyone on here would be saying that I was smart for keeping my premarital assets safe.

This it so very off topic. What I want to understand is what is going on that would cause someone to think they get to be given hundreds of thousands of dollars in a "wife" account?
Don't you guys see the contradiction between telling me I should give her the house I bought before marriage and because everything in a marriage is shared and not calling out the notion of a "wife" account?[/quote]
