[quote=Anonymous]DH didn't want to buy me an engagement ring (I used a ring from my family) but he did ask me to use my money to buy "us" a car. Fast forward 20 years and we're divorcing, he wants to retire at age 56 and live off 1/2 of my pension, and he doesn't want to help more than a nominal amount with child support or the kids' colleges and grad schools. Yeah, I should have known from the very beginning. No use flaming me. The ring/car thing was a big red flag. (Well, everybody told me he was the "nice" one in the office and he's also good looking.) Those of you who are still dating, learn from my mistakes. If you meet a guy like OP, check out the bigger picture. Check out his work ethic and his family's values. Most important: Does he want *you* to be happy, even if that requires following possibly archaic conventions like rings? [/quote]
