[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Additional info…….he’s 43, divorced with two kids. We do not want more kids. $60k really does not go far in DC. I earn enough to take care of myself well, but I just feel apprehensive about having added pressure to maintain and increase earnings should we marry. He is very self sufficient and takes excellent care of household matters. He’s also very kind and a great father. Things are wonderful while dating, but I’m concerned the dynamic might change if married.[/quote] I’m sorry OP, I would not marry this man. Another poster suggested cohabitation and I think that might be your best option so long as you make sure there’s no common-law benefits to him upon separation. With child support payments taking up 18 years, he is not going to have adequate retirement savings on $60,000, so you are essentially signing up to be his 401(k) if you marry, as well as giving up half your assets if you divorce.
