“I Don’t Think That’s a Good Idea”

[@kbere4142]

I dated a lifelong friend for a couple years. My whole family is very pro marriage and I was very uncomfortable dating an extended period. He wanted to go to every fancy dinner, every fancy trip, treat me like a queen, buy me gifts, move in together, etc etc etc, but didn’t want to get married until some indefinite period of time. I told him I could not play marriage with him or move in with him without marriage. We broke up, and I met my husband later on that year. Married 4 months later and I’ve never been happier. My husband never bought me all the stuff or took me to all those places, but he didn’t have to. Marriage and a family is what I wanted, and he’s exactly what I needed. Even good men/women have commitment issues. Don’t stay in dead end relationships, even if they seem good. If you want a marriage, all the other stuff will never be enough.

I think using a company car for personal use is stealing. She doesn't have permission to drive it. They aren't telling the company because the company would probably say no.

I'm a business owner and both of your hosts are quite naive. It doesn't matter what coverage she has on the "company car." Things are going to go south very quickly for her boyfriend's company and for her if she gets into an accident, and that would be as soon as the other party learns it's a "company car." What's going to end up happening when the lawyers get involved is that she'll discover she was not authorized to drive that car and the employer's insurance company will deny coverage. Her tiny (standard) insurance maximums will be met in a heartbeat and she and the boyfriend's company will be in hot water. The boyfriend's employer will then sue her and she'll have two lawsuits to contend with. The train wreck starts with moving an irresponsible boyfriend into the home and pretending to be married. What a mess.

This happened to my mom. She and her live in boyfriend broke up. It was his house, so we had to share an air mattress in a friend’s apartment for a few months before she got her own house. They bought a fifth wheel and a boat together. I don’t remember what happened to the fifth wheel. Probably sold it. But the boat was stored in a marina a few hours away. Her name was on the boat, because her credit was better, and they came after her when he stopped making the payments on it. (She had better credit, but he had the better income.)

It’s not clear that marriage fixes the situation. They have mixed assets but: * She has debt (credit card, car, school, medical debt, etc.). * Both are on the house loan. * he has no other debt. Is the deed in both of their names? The problem is if goes sideways the house is an issue. If they marry all her debt becomes their debt. If she decides to leave after being married he’s now owner of half her debt. Sell the house, or put it in one persons name where that person pays all the house bills. Get married if that is what they really want.

Recently they sent a few of us to another state for a few weeks and gave us a few cars. One co-worker that I had a matching schedule with was told to carpool with me.

[@andreaworld4408]

OK, this is what I dont understand. How is the marriage going to 'protect' her from losing her share of the joint assets if they go their seperate ways? Clearly the laws regarding defacto relationships and shared assets are different here in Australia, because if you have a joint mortgage in both names, it is irrelevent whether they are married or not. The same process has to happen to divide assets. It would actually be cheaper and less paperwork to separate when not married due to not having to also pay for the divorce. Why and how is it different in the USA? Here, if you split, both parties are legally protected in an asset division, married or not.

[@RepentImmediately]

The concern moreso when the Ramsey folks discuss this issue is what would happen if one party were to die and there isn't a will, in which case a judge would likely rule that the dead party's assets would go to next of kin meaning the living party ends up owning a home with the dead party's parents

Why does she have debt on appliances and the bf doesn’t have debt. What appliances is she paying for?

[@barnabusdoyle4930]

Fun fact: All of these “protections” they are saying you would have if you get married as opposed to just living together aren’t really there. The other partner could just up and walk away at any time rather married or not. If all debt is in both names, and they left, you are stuck paying all of that debt if they don’t want to pay it anymore. You might have some recourse in court if married, but that could take years and is usually played against the man in the relationship. Get married to a woman for 5 years and watch her divorce you while getting half your pension, keeping the house, having you pay for the car and give her spousal support.

[@blackworldtraveler3711]

Yeah my girlfriend and I have been together for over twenty years. No marriage contract and no commingled assets. No kids. My homes in the U.S. and her homes and other assets in Italy before we met in our 30s. No need to depend on each other for money/finances and does not affect the relationship. Always knew she had the freedom to leave the relationship since the beginning.

[@lukerider479]

There is no protections but there is recourse in court which is actually protection. Got it.

[@Julian-zc9vm]

In absence of children, and in a situation where both partners are working and have stable careers, the negatives of legal marriage outweigh the benefits. If children are involved, or if two people are life partners and one is financially carrying the other, then maybe there are benefits to getting married that outweigh the negatives. There’s a right and wrong way to live together as an unmarried though. I would not be buying major assets like a home or car with someone you’re not married to. You’re roommates and everything is a business transaction. Don’t buy anything for or with your roommate unless you’re ok with potentially losing it entirely if you split.

[@ucbearcats1978]

What do you think are the negatives of legal marriage?

[@Julian-zc9vm]

@@ucbearcats1978 the negatives are obvious and directly related to divorce. The burden of proof lies with those in favor of marriage, to prove that marriage is worthwhile specifically as I said, “in absence of children or a situation where one partner is financially caring the other”. And to be clear, I understand that there are benefits even in situations where kids aren’t involved, but I’m just saying that the downsides outweigh those benefits.

[@RepentImmediately]

​@@ucbearcats1978it creates a huge financial risk and considering the high failure rate of marriages, I don't understand why people marry.
