  • Don't be silly, you'll never be in that situation.

    Nobody will ever love you, nobody will ever want you, nobody will ever marry you and you'll never have children.

    Furthermore, the obvious lack of language skills demonstrate that nobody in their right mind would employ you in a job role which would grant you the finances to be able to afford a mortgage on a home that's in a "better estate" than anyone. You clearly don't have the attitude or skills to be able to thrive in a place of work, or a place of social gathering.

    I can only think that you also incorrectly spelled the title of the thread and you intended to start a thread on the state of your brain entitled "Turnips".

    I totally agree. As a woman who is in a relationship, and just bought my own flat (and in general actually) I am glad someone has just stated the obvious. :)

    God help us all if we are ever be to faced with one of your long posts.

    Chill, OP can't even be bothered to use auto spell-check (or perhaps invest in slightly more sophisticated IT?). With pre-nups, the devil is in the detail. I don't foresee a happy ending for him. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hope is not a strategy :D...A child is for life, not just 18 years....Don't get me started on the NHS, because you won't win...I love chaz-ing!
  • I can understand the logic behind prenups, though they're a bit cynical. They are also very business like, when I believe the relationship leading up to marriage should be much more about heart than head.

    That aside, for people having them, I think length of marriage and disparity in wealth is a factor in how 'fair' I would view them in a divorce settlement.

    I agree with the heart than head comment. Alto hubby was defo entering marriage with his head. It was hundreds of thousands of inheritance and to him he needed peace of mind. I really couldn't have cared less so just signed.
    Forty and fabulous, well that's what my cards say....

    I like to get all kinds of discussions going and hear peoples opinions.

    Im starting debates and dicussions. [/QUOTE]

    Just to point out that the OP isn't looking for advice on a real-life situation that he's in.

    He just likes to get discussions going, start debates and hear people's opinions.

    Personally, I thought there was a board specially for threads like this....that would be Discussion Time. smiley-rolleyes010.gif

    My point exactly. smiley-rolleyes010.gif

    I personally think it's rude to ask questions - on this specific board - when it's a hypothetical situation without stating that.
