seriously though... i won't be getting one... i don't feel the need... we've bought a house together (we have a mortgage) and are planning on buying another one early next year... so most of our major assets will be joint anyway... i know us both well enough to know that if something did happen, we'd both be fair... famous last words i know... but i'm happy to go with that

I don't think my wife would have agreed to one. And I really didn't have any assets that I needed to protect.

To share dreams. But what happens when the ideal breaks down?

Not a bad theory. I went through the divorce thing. We were very fair as I to knew we would be. We fought over nothing.

Though I am certain you will do great together. There is nothing wrong in knowing you have selected a fair and good person.

If I marry my sweet, I think I will get a pre-nupt.

Not because I don't trust him, but because his ex-wife is evil, and greedy.

I worked to long and to hard to let some stalker get my money.

A person who is both fair in dealings and good in character as to not attempt to screw you over in the end.

In my case we did not work out as a couple but we both wished the other well and were fair and equitable at the end of the relationship and continue to be with our two children from that union.

This doesn't happen very often. I commend you and your ex...

So do you think we just dont take enough time and pick people correctly and or it's just not human nature?

I think that we chose who we chose to learn life lessons.

What we do with those lessons is another thing.

On a related point - I suspect it's not usual to predict how a relationship might break down, and therefore not easy to know what psychology will prevail over a settlement. I agree with Saggy, you were fortunate. So, what happens if you're not so fortunate? It happens all the time.

hmph!
