Are you pretty much screwed the moment you sign the papers for marriage?



People are saying you become the state's property once you sign those marriage papers meaning she gets a portion of your income (most of the time its half) if either party divorces.

No.

All I lost to the state when I divorced was the filing fee. Money well spent

Prenuptial agreements mean piss. And frankly, if you're already planning for the divorce before you even get married, the divorce will be a self fulfilling prophecy.

Has there ever been a single strictly anti-marriage poster on this board that actually knew what they were talking about?


Anti-marriage? If youre the one in the relationship with much higher earning power, job security, etc. youre being rash if you dont have any doubts about marriage. Its like saying youre anti-having a job because you carefully read over a job offer that a company sent you.

If she makes more than you, you get alimony.

Only time you're safe is with a prenup, and even those aren't bullet proof.

Alimony is hard to get these days, there has to be a huge discretion in incomes or one partner not working at all. Now child support on the other hand, yes dudes get bent the fuck over.

Are you still considered the state's property if you have kids with your ex gf and have to pay as if you both were married?

If you're a guy the only reason to get married (as opposed to having a long-term relationship) is if she's rich or from a wealthy family.

Which is unfortunate because that is pure greed.

Prenups only cover assets you had before you got married.
