[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a little weird to me. OP says she's not legally getting married. And people are still piling on. Last I checked DCUM was FULL of SAHMs and underemployed women who mooch off of men. I smell a little hypocrisy and sexism. If OP wants to marry a nice guy who cleans and cooks and is fun to hang out with- but doesn't have a huge 401K- how is that different from any woman who doesn't work? And if a woman who spend a lifetime working in the home needs some of their joint funds to support elderly parents, wouldn't that be between the couple? Or would that always be wrong and a SAHM gives up all rights to deciding how family money is spent? [/quote]

The whole thing is weird- the original post focuses on her being worried about being dragged down financially by this guy and then when people try to warn her as to the potential major ramifications for herself/her daughter entering college her response is basically “whatever my ex is rich, college is already fully funded and by the way I’m not planning to [b]marry[/b] the guy and also he make 4x what I do.” It’s also pretty unusual to have a church only marriage…in any circumstances, but particularly for two divorcées.[/quote]
