To most, divorce is seen as a failure, most men can't stand losin, especially when they've given their all into the marriage.

true but for most it is more than that, the financial implication is way too heavy on the guy's side

Oh well, the reverse is the case in developing countries where the man kicks the woman and even his kids out of the house. The western countries have laws that protect the wife and kids.

Thank God you know those are the only 2 parties it protects and in the case of wife, gives advantage. The man does not get any protection, he gets shafted, hence the suicide rate.

Only a foolish, risk-loving or poor man does not sign a pre-nup if he lives in the West.

Abegi, thatz not being foolish jare. Thatz being loving.

My rich husband must not sigh prenup. . . . rubish and nonsense. He must understand that its only okay if I take half of his possessions to take care of his children.

@post
Its only understandable. . . .

No child needs like 200K (in cases of wealthy people) a year to be taken care of.

No way would you spend that on a child, and no one is going to monitor how you spend the money, and since no child needs it, it is going to your pocket and that of your new lover.

No man should be funding an ex (and her lover in some cases), except he deems it fit himself that she is worth it, not if some stuuupid judicial system sees it acceptable.

If a man feels it is OK to take half his possesions to fund his kids, then let him make that decision himself and expense it himself.

Loving ko, shoving ni! When women love you, they will do anything for you. When they stop loving you, they will care for their own poo more than they care for you. If you are rich, protect yourself for when the "loving" stops.

Otherwise, he will be funding a woman he is not interested in anymore and her lover. A man that does that in this day and age of horror stories is a dumbass!

It is lovely to share when you are together, when you are no more together, I aint sharing my sweat anymore and it should stop. I will be sharing with someone new.

The WEST have destroyed marriage. It is one thing to correct a wrong (women being shafted in divorce), but it is another thing to transfer the wrong.

It is not nice (or romantic, as chics would say) to be doing the whole pre-nup thing, but with the risk to men (financial destruction or injustice) involved nowadays in the West, it is a MUST for any one with his wits with him.

It is pretty silly/risky to meet a woman for 18 - 48 months (of dating), and then put the ability to destroy your life in a her hands by not protecting yourself before marriage (the courts WILL not protect you, they will in fact f you up).

It might sound all loving, romantic, beautiful, heavenly, gorgeous, chivalrous, nostalgic, passionate, enchanting, idealistic to say "I love her and I trust her so I don't think I need a prenup". F that, go and ask dumbass Paul Mcartney and hundreds others. Women are biological inclined to think of only their feelings and needs in a relationship, hence their constant me me me in relationships (except that relationship is with a completely selfish male they are with to change, then they are all giving giving giving like mumus).

Very negligible number of women have the self restraint to not exploit the possibility of getting far more than they know they are entitled to from a man they do not love anymore. They are programmed biologically to think of only themselves and their own feelings, and culturally it is accepted for them to be that way.

woah, mo fun e ni 10 gbosa for that one. . . . but @the bolded, someone might just be walking along your wayand might just happen to beg to differ that opinionated point.

Do men not also care about themselves? You guys are so stuck up what she might take from you when she ends it and she might be trying to suck your pockets dry. Abegi, if anybody serious minded person goes into a relationship, the first thing they WOULD care about is "What will happen after. . . "

So far, I agree with all your points, but I'm still adamant about Prenup, I have a personal issue with it.

Re: Divorce Makes Men More Suicidal Than Women by Tinksh(f): 6:49am On Mar 16, 2010
I have tried to ignore commenting on this subject but i cant stand it anymore!! I am so sick and tired of hearing how poor men get done out of their money in a divorce, especially in the west!!! Not all are so innocent and loose everything. Some, in my case, are very sneaky and have put everything in his name. Even our business dealings and assets before divorcing me for greener pasture. I ended up with absolutely nothing after 12 years of marriage and building a business and giving him a child! So please stop crying over the men who lost everything cos some women spent the best part of there life trusting, loving, supporting, working hard to end up with nothing! My fatal mistake was trusting that he would never do that to me or our son! I was so wrong!!!

I am always grateful that i have my son but after 12 years of my life and working long hours, i had to start all over from nothing. My ex husband kept everything and all these years later i am still trying to get some maintenance out of him. So i am sorry i dont agree.
