In all fairness...

If used correctly, cigarettes will harm your health regardless.

If used correctly, brides generally will not harm your health.

USED CORRECTLY? Any usage is incorrect. You shouldn't be USING anyone. Loving. Honoring. Cherishing. But NOT USING.

Eeek!

It was meant to be a snarky joke type thingy....no offense meant!

(Nobody should be being "used", but since Bali is a smidge...hmmm. What's the word? "vitriolic" about alimony I kind of just wanted to point out that women aren't inherently evil!)

Sarcasm hon. Don't worry about it. Bali is****************************..... Bali. Pretty much all women to him are evil. I have tried to convince him that some of us aren't and some women have never wanted for nor asked for alimony. But he thinks that is fantasy land.

And, I'm sure you agree that every US Citizen GROOM should ALSO come with a warning affixed, just like a pack of cigarettes, right?

I mean, people really need to be aware of what they're getting in to from EITHER side.

Last I knew, Bali doesn't think I'm evil.

Of course, I've never attempted to reach into his wallet.

I think that we should all get together and take Bali out to dinner! Maybe he won't think we're so evil after that?

I'm really confused on what to do. She is now telling me that she is willing to work with me. She wants half the home equity when I sell it, 10k over the next few years, and help her pay a few bills here and there, and she will call it even.

I'm wondering if I should take a risk? It seems like if I do it, then she wont look back and wont find other ways to get more money.

And I'll surprise you and take you up on that when I'm in your neck of the woods OG.

Right now I couldn't be any further from your neck of the woods unless I went to the land down under.
