It doesn't matter what the spouse or we think they deserve. It's what the law allows. If a guy moves into a woman's house, and she's making the house payments, and they divorce, he can get 50% of what she's put into it. If her parents give the couple the downpayment for the house, he gets 50% of that if they divorce. "Deserving" has nothing to do with it.
That may be the law but it is unethical in my opinion. You should get what you you put into something. No more or less. If a guy mooches off his wife and they divorce, he should get 0% of anything.

Sometimes what you put into a marriage is not measurable in $$$ amounts.
..in a divorce just for being there? If your husband/wife spent the entire marriage mooching off of you (no steady income, never had kids to raise, didn't do much around the house,etc), do they deserve anything? I say hell no.
oh boy - not another one of these sour grapes threads

The thing is, you never get to hear the other side of the story in these posts. I had a coworker with the most infuriating divorce story. I really felt for him. Then I found her side of the story a few years alter and we had all been jerked around by the guy. Now I take these stories with a pinch of salt.

Exactly. And the more bitching, moaning and complaining someone does on this subject the less likely I am to believe the story they tell.
So out of blind love, you foolishly accept to marry the love of your life without a prenuptial agreement.
How many women actually agree to pre nups?
