Did none of this come up before marriage?

And I don't mean offense by this - I know nothing about your particular situation. But personally, I have trust issues, so I would try to probe my partner in every way possible before committing to marriage, especially in a country where I, the man, stand to lose far more if it doesn't work out.

When some people say "Oh I spent $100k on divorce lawyers" it absolutely horrifies me. $100k is higher than my entire net worth. My first boss probably lost to the tune of $1 million to his ex wife, despite still paying the majority of bills for the kids.




Before marriage and for the first 10 years of the marriage she had a job(well, there was that couple years where she sat around playing team fortress classic all day.. but still).

I was 21. I didn't know enough to ask the right questions and think ahead.
