[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, it actually isn't the same. Married finances are even taxed differently. The reason married couples can look at everything as "ours" such that splitting bills doesn't even make logical sense is because, generally, everything is ours -- if one dies, it all belongs to the other (again generally, obviously there will be specific exceptions); if we divorce it generally gets split evenly (again generally, obviously there will be specific exceptions). If one of you dies or you break up, it is much messier unless you have a contract in place and a will to cover your child's needs. You do have wills right? And a contract to cover the care and custody of the child if one of you splits?[/quote] I think she meant how she and her SO split finances won’t be any different. Your response further proves that his search was weird. If he’s worried about the legality and permanence of finances once married that’s a really bad sign. [/quote]
