[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here,

Everyone one here appears to be missing the point and simply focusing on why a wife should be on the deed, in part because its humiliating not to.

I didn't meet her until I was in my 40s and everything I had I earned on my own. 
Had I met her when I was young and broke and we built everything together then she would have been on every title and deed.
Unfortunately; I understand divorce law and was/am rightfully concerned about losing everything in a no-fault divorce proceeding at an age where I simply can't rebuild.
If a woman doesn't comingle her assets its simply considered wise for her to protect herself. Apparently if a man protects himself he is unsuitable for marriage.

I didn't ask her to comingle any of her assets because I wasn't with her for her money.
She was the beneficiary of everything.

Here is the point:

If its humiliating for a woman not to be on the deed of a house that was purchased prior to marriage, isn't it just as humiliating (even more) for his wife to say I won't be your wife unless you give me hundreds of thousands of dollars?

In effect this means the woman isn't with the man for love. To her, his value isn't in his character, his ethic, its simply his ability to transfer assets to her and unless he can afford to risk large losses he isn't worth staying with.

You didn’t ask her to commingle her assets but did you offer to live in a house you didn’t own, and had no claim to? Did you offer to clean and repair and pay bills for that house knowing you were giving up the chance to build any equity of your own? Did you offer to buy a new home together that could have been both of yours? Or did you just expect your wife to give time and energy in service to enriching you? Because that is what the last three years were for her— she made you wealthier and got nothing (hopefully her lawyer will find a way to remedy that).
