Firebirdseeking -> RE: Financially supporting your dom? Advice? (4/19/2010 7:58:24 PM)
|
I am planning to soon marry my Dom. A friend called me and said that she felt it was "her duty as my friend" to tell me to get a pre-nup. I was stunned that she felt this was her duty. I dont like pre-nups. I think that they say, I love you but ya know, I have my own interests to protect. Not a good way to start, or to proceed, in a marriage.
Having said that, I see a problem here that no one has addressed. OP, what do you mean, you aren't the college type, and you have a low paying job, etc, etc? This is a HUGE problem - the problem that is corrected by a woman getting an education, and/or some job skills so that she is capable of supporting herself, and her family, should something happen to her husband/ Dom. To me, its really folly to rely on being financially taken care of by daddy or Dom or husband. My father became disabled when I was 21 and my mother continued to work; and my ex of 25 years became disabled as well. Shit happens. If I was not educated, and if my mother did not have job skills, our lives would have been very difficult indeed. You need your OWN job, your OWN money, your OWN credit. Trust is one thing. Being foolish is another.
In reply to the OP.
