Marriage? Yes or no?

Do you still believe in marriage? What about if you are older, have been married and divorced? Do you see the need to do it again? And why?

My partner has been married twice. I have never married. We have been together 16 years. Even if we wanted to get married, we couldn't afford it. The main problem that we may face potentially is that I own the house. If I were to die without leaving a will, my partner would have no claim to the house. She would be homeless. Even though she has paid for the majority of the renovations and furnishings.

@Jacko1971 that should be easy to fix with a will in place if you don’t want to get married.

@Mbingh01 yes I know. It's something on my list of things to do.

It's a very long list. 😉

@Jacko1971 do it asap! My brother died at 43 in a car accident. He had 3 kids. Two from first wife, and a 3 year old from second wife. He had no will. It was an ordeal.
