[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I am glad I read these comments and realize I am out of touch.  I originally was a bit offended when she told me all this because [b]a.) I felt like it implied my own children wouldn't think of her or take care of her in old age when they have a good relationship and seem to genuinely like each other and [/b]b.) it felt like she was just picking a paycheck over marriage.  She is very interested in living together/buying a 2nd vacation home together in a place we both love.  I guess I just assumed we would get married.  She very frankly told me "my husband worked a job he hated for years to ensure I would be provided for in all circumstances of life."  which to me doesn't seem like "independent woman" it seems like picking the "richer" man.  I know I need to change my thinking on that. [/quote]

Your children will not take care of her. Wake the hell up. She is not their mother.

She is 49 not 20. She has to be practical.

[b]You better stick with this woman because with your naivity, you could easily end up marrying some woman who you'd quickly entrust your money to hoping she will pass on whatever she has left to your children because "they genuinely like each other".[/b] You would earn up turning in your grave with disappointment and regret.
