[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t listen to unhelpful PPs OP. I understand your question and had same one when my parents gave me and my DH money for down payment. I didn’t find a proper answer (didn’t look very hard). But I sat down DH and made it clear that if we divorce I consider that down payment as my inheritance and not communal property. Yes, yes I know what everyone thinks, but we are a good couple and if we divorce it will most likely be consensual (if it is not I know I can sit on any promise).

Anyway, just to say that I think it is a very fair question and I hope someone has a good answer for you [/quote]

Lol. You can consider it proof your right to the throne of Genovia, and if you actually divorce it won't make one bit of difference.

Also, most people think they're "good couples" when they get married. That's why they get married.[/quote]

Haha. Right? As long as you sat him down and made that clear, then, sure, you're all set. Next question: why didn't he run for the hills at that point?[/quote]

He is very value driven, a stickler to his word and doesnt care much about money. I know him well (thats why i married him 10 years ago). We could divorce for other reasons (unlikely but not impossible). and based on how we have both ended our previous relationships, how we have dealt with family or work conflicts, however acrimonious it may have been, we have both always cared very much about doing the right thing and being as ethical as possible without letting emotions in the driver seat. More than the actual outcome (i think some people reading this will absolutely understand, others won't because it is not at the center of their values, no judgment, some people value kindness/emotional connection/ empathy more for ex. which is obviously awsome). It is really one of the core value we share.

so yes you can totally laugh and i get it. But i trust him :)
