are you remarried, divorced?

[markio26]

it is all over the news.. the press is having a field day with the mcCartney breakup... love is blind.. he surely should have done a prenup.. he did give her millions of dollars prior to the marriage.. she will and should receive alot of money, she has a 2 yr. old to raise...
linda's family managed his money when he married her... Eastman.............the point here is divorce is so expensive to your budget... remarriage is so expensive to your budget... i do believe in long term commitment but not paying too high of a cost for it.
i don't know the solution.. but, a good attorney surely could write up some trusts prior to commitment to protect both parties.

Remarried and did it right this time No prenup but with the farm and all our stuff/animals we joke that whoever wants out has to deal with all the stuff, heck it's almost as bad as kids so we stick together, lol!

Seriously we BOTH learned a LOT from bad previous relationships and watching our parents relationships and will NOT go that way. We've been together 16 years and don't fight, it's not worth fighting, to much stress.

Re: are you remarried, divorced?

This was one couple I was suprised that ended up in divorce court. His daughter advised him not to marry her and to sign a pre-nunp. With the little that I do have and it's not much in this day and age I would sign and have my future husband as well to sign

Re: are you remarried, divorced?

Have been married, mostly happily, (every one has their ups and downs) for nearly 13 years. My hubby jokes that we will never divorce as "half of nothing is nothing". Then again it means I have nothing to lose...hmmmm....just jokes.

Divorced -- and I don't recommend it as money-saving exercise.

Re: are you remarried, divorced?

Happily married for eight years now. We have dotted the i's and crossed the t's with all the necessary papers, i.e, will, living trust, etc. . We're very content and hubby is retiring in June with 36 years, 8 months working as a postmaster and supervisor. He is retiring at the tender age of 55 years of age!

We both have been previously married.

Re: are you remarried, divorced?

Married 16 years this summer. This was my 2nd and DHs first.

If only I knew then (during the divorce) what I know now....The divorce was the right thing..I just wished I hadnt spent so much in attorney fees over the years fighting a losing battle (child support)...Oh well.

DH and I are happy and are finally starting to see some fruits from the last 16 years of hard labor.

Not married yet! But living together and splitting expenses.

Re: are you remarried, divorced?

Married my high school sweetheart in 1990. We joke that our house is a divorce free zone because whoever leaves has to take the kids, so nobody is going anywhere! LOL!

Re: are you remarried, divorced?

What about if we're just looking for someone who's divorce and wanting to remarry?

Been single all of my life (never even lived with someone!!!), but haven't let that stop me from reaching any financial/life goals. Granted, it may take me longer to get some things done that I'd like to do, being the only income is mine. Guess what a "coupleship" would add is someone to do some of those things with, not to mention, help take out the garbage and cut the lawn.

Re: are you remarried, divorced?

Well I have been happily married for 29 years. I was previously married for 12 years in a very unhappy marriage, I did not know my current husband when I left the first one. My divorce was final on April 4, I got engaged on April 2nd (same year, 2 days apart) and was married on May 13th. so I was single for 5 weeks in the past 41 years.
When I married the 2nd time, I owned my own home free and clear and I did not put it into my husband's name, I kept it in my name only.
After being married 7 years, we moved and built a new house in both names.
