Affairs of the heart…

Marion, your thread is really funny. You are quite cheeky. I think it has lasted so long because you coming to this forum is like a hot girl dressed like Princess Lea showing up at Comic-Con…instant celebrity. Keep up the good work.

Carlos, If you are not relaxed, relax and don’t use whiskey to do it. Your situation isn’t so unique and it is working fine for some of us who got started under similar circumstances. I do want to know where your inspiration for those double diamond references the other day came from though but that must have set you back a bit.

Cooper: “Lets assume you meet mr. right and you now have that critical joint-checking account… at some point in the future your new husband wants to settle down and buy a house, since you state that you will NEVER buy a house with a man again, how does this proceed?

1) Buy adjoining condos, or a duplex, using money from your separate accounts & knock out a common wall.

2) Use his accounts to secure the loan, but make sure the deed is joint-tentants…

If he already owns a house, do you require joint ownership, is this a “deal-breaker” too, and if so, would you be willing to put yourself on the mortgage (assume the current housing market).

Just curious.”

Rustico: “Marion does the man you are dating own his own home and would you date a man who did not own a home? I can see how you can own a home with man without buying one with him ;).”

Rustico, A home has sentimental value to me, not just monetary value that is why I don’t want to be forced to sell if I remarry and there is a divorce. I know there is a buy out option, but I’d rather not have my house on the line. Yes, I would date a man that did not own his own home with the caveat that he would own it in the not-too-distant future.

Cooper, assuming my new husband has a home of his own, these are the possibilities for living arrangements:

1) If he’s agreeable, we live in one house and rent the other out.

2) We live in seperate houses, and divide the time we spend between residences. This is probably a less likely scenario.

I haven’t thought the legalities through, but I see no reason why this shouldn’t work. A couple more things: Cooper, no I wouldn’t want or require joint ownership. I’m not a gold-digger and don’t want a part of his house, which means no, I would not and see no reason for me to put mysself on his mortgage.

Lastly, I would buy a vacation home with him, investment property or business property. I just don’t want my personal residence put at risk because it will be a place where I have raised my children and somewhere both they and I can always go back to.

Voz…

Kiss it goodbye.

Simply amazing. Marion asks for advice regarding one of the guys she is dating. Asks if she is being unreasonable. Then provides a confusing, conflicting story/rationale.

Many people take the time to give their well thought out response to her query. The vast majority of comments explain that she is in fact being unreasonable. Her flawed analysis of the situation is exposed, her contradictions explained to her. Her response is to personally attack a few individuals, and completely ignore the substance of the majority of the posts. Then backpedals and claims she was somehow misunderstood. In a nutshell, she does not want any advice from anyone unless it is to let her know she is right. In a further attempt to take attention away from her irrational posts she concentrates on trading recipes.

I would love to hear her ex-husbands side of the story. That would probably clear a few things up about her and her stubborn refusal to acknowledge when she is wrong and inability to accept any critical advice.

Marion: What advice have your girlfriends given when you asked them this same question? Or any of your friends for that matter?

By the way, it only makes sense to avoid commingling one’s funds when getting married to someone that is a financial liability. Why is that a problem for you? Why so insistent on maintaining a joint account and putting your husbands finances in jeopardy? It’s not a trust issue, it’s just plain selfish and shortsighted to demand a potential financial disaster.

Diego: As a boy my pastor called me “Pablo”. When I mentioned that to a friend awhile back, he called me Pablo Escobar. I had no idea who that was until he told me. I don’t have any sympathies for major drug kingpins or their like, but thought the name sounded cool. Especially when it is a play on words. The “Q” is because I practice law. Someday when I’m done practicing I’ll do it for real. Just like on t.v.
