Pre nuptual Agreement...?

In that case, I can see the benefit of having a disclosure law, but that's another thread.)

I didn't realize that the Catholic church won't marry a couple who has a pre-nup. That's interesting... I wonder what the Scientologists think.

Why? Because some people habitually clog up our legal system due to thinking with their eh-hem rather than their head too early in a relationship.

A friend from college had a "starter marriage"- they married right out of college and were married for around 2 years before they decided to divorce. Since neither one had any assets or money, they ended up doing a "do-it-yourself divorce"- no lawyers were involved. They filled out all of their own paperwork and represented themselves the one time they actually had to appear in court. I think it only cost them $100 in filing and court fees. Not sureif you could do that in all states (This was Ohio).

As for the pre-nup, I like the idea of the experation date in theory, but it could get a little sticky if they decide to pull a Donald Trump. I don;t know if you can put in any other continencies- such as they have to go to couseling before separating (and if they don't then the prenup holds) or something.

wait. they have children - together, right? not from previous relationships? i don't see how a prenup is going to be advantageous for anyone here.

Lots of people do the "do it yourself" divorce thing, I know several couples who were married for 15-20 years who have done it, just to save money.

I know you can do a no-frills dissolusion for filing and court costs in Ohio, but I think it's around $400 and a one-month process. Still, it's too easy.

Luckily, it takes longer to disolve a marriage than get into one. Maybe it will encourage couples to think about their vows it a little bit before pulling the plug.

This doesn't have anything to do with a pre-nup....I know in some states, when children are involved, parental counseling is required.

Pre nupts are common when property and spousal support is involved...children very rarely have nothing to do with any pre marital contracts.

here is something interesting

A sunset provision may be inserted into a prenuptial agreement, specifying that after a certain amount of time, the agreement will expire. In a few states, such as Maine, the agreement will automatically lapse after the birth of a child, unless the parties renew the agreement. In other states, a certain number of years of marriage will cause a prenuptial agreement to lapse. In states that have adopted the UPAA (Uniform Prenuptial Agreement Act), no sunset provision is provided by statute, but one could be privately contracted for.

NOTHING =/= ANYTHING

I know you're trying to keep up your ghetto rep here, but you just gave your sentence the exact opposite meaning. Please, learn to express yourself correctly.

Whether it was a typo, poor grammar, or a horrible attempt at "slang," I knew what you meant based on the context.

It certainly wasn't "ghetto" and I don't see you as trying to keep up a "ghetto rep." Whatever the hell that is.

really...I do.

You'll love how I told my little that I was getting a divorce, then. She had moved, and I was in her city, so I gave her a call and asked, "Hey, who took the bets on how long our marriage would last?" She protested, and I responded, "I know someone did - we've always done that." Again, she protested, so I said, "Look, K, we may have a winner...."

Your spelling is always ghetto. Trust me, I read the NPHC forums, and none of them type consistently like you do. When you're in the Random Spurts thread and you type that something is "DA TROOF", it's cute. When you are trying to have an intelligent discussion, it's not. You tend to get way too heated and your arguments hardly ever make sense.

I tell you what...since you are busy trying to correct people:

define - "Ghetto Rep"

and how that applies to me.

I think you forget you don't know me well enough to even attempt to apply that term.

You have gotten a lil' toooo familiar if you think I will sit here and let you apply that term to me.

Who the hell are you that you THINK you can call someone out as being 'ghetto'...oh...wait...let's see if you can define ghetto rep first.


Do you own or have some stock of Greekchat I didn't know about?

Now, if I called you poor white trash... (wait....you like to correct people how about PRISSY white trash) I would be wrong hmmm?


I am not here for a popularity contest

or to be 'cute'

or to show off my snarkiness which some of you here have in endless supply

or show off my 'amazing antics'

I come here simply to chat....isn't there a 'chat' in greechat?

just checking.

And last I checked I don't have anything to prove to you.

IF you can't tell a simple grammatical error from someone being 'cute' then you are really dumber than I had mistaken you for.


It's amazing in the quest some people around here take to make others to 'comply' or 'spell check' each other...they just happen to miss that foot flying in thier own mouths.

Now, I am sure you don't need a translator for that.

My sister-law and brother-in-law had a bet that my husband and I wouldn't make it to our wedding date. Then they bet that we wouldn't make it to our 5th anniversary. Well- we made it to both, but they are now divorced. Karma's a bitch sometimes.
