It is funny that you ask this question because my husband and I have been talking about this lately. We have a friend that is very Wealthy. He has a girlfriend that he has had for 9 years. They live together in her apartment (she lived there before she met him) that he pays for. She has been constantly trying to force him into marriage. He has never said that he doesn't want to marry her because of the money thing, but I think the more of an issue that she makes the more he doesn't want to do it. She also is constantly making comments about needing to get married so that if anything happens she will get 1/2 of everything.
I know I probably feel differently about this than every one but I don't believe that you have to have that piece of paperwork to prove your love to some. However, given the scenerio at hand if it was brought to me in that manner I would probably leave. BUT I also understand the need from him to want to protect himself. Especially, since there are a lot of people out there just in search of money.
