Are you OK, MisterBeale?
You sound unstable.
What makes him a nut case? Has there been infidelity or abuse? Otherwise, what happened to "for better or for worse, forsaking all others, till death do they part?"
Or is it just so long as it is convenient, he makes her happy and it is profitable for her? As soon as his mental faculties start to decline, he needs help and is no longer a good specimen for a husband. . . well, then just suck dry what ever financial resources are available from his husk and throw him away, is that how we work as a nation now? That's pretty much how popular culture has conditioned us, hasn't it?
Yup, just fine. I'm just wondering what makes a woman think she has any rights to veterans benefits if she is unsure if she has even been with a guy long enough to qualify for them. Doesn't that speak toward the woman's motives for marrying the guy in the first place? He made her feel nice, like a princess, but most of all, he was a ticket to security. Once he quit making her feel like a queen, if she feels like some other guy can, than all she needs to do is find out if she can take that meal ticket with her. (Hence, slander and libel the guy she is with. I'm not fan of women denigrating our veterans.) If I've seen it once, I've seen it a hundred times.
I don't want to be accused of being a misogynist here, but if there is really just cause for dissolving the union, then get out of the marriage and forget about the money, quit trying to get money you don't deserve. If not, take your ******* vows seriously. The whole scenario seems suspect to me. If she is wondering if she has been in the marriage long enough to qualify for taking half of his money. . . c'mon, wake up.
Christ. What happened to morality in this country.
If on the other hand, if there really is just cause for dissolving the union, sure, get an attorney. Of course she is seeking free advice, that is what a gold digger does.
What she should instead seek advice on is how to bring magic back into the marriage. She was good at snagging a meal ticket, how about getting advice on making HIM feel special now? How about advice on making a successful marriage.
Apparently she listens to too much pop music, reads to many fairy tales, and watches too many god damned Hollywood movies telling her how her life should be, not how it is. There is no such thing as self-sacrifice in this nation any more, so when we feel it, it is fait accompli and cause to throw off that uncomfortable feeling. And we have been given permission, by our peers, by our schools, by the media, by society. No one can bear such a thing unless they truly feel real unconditional love. It is not for the selfish and unworthy surely.
Hell, how dare I bring up such a thing? I myself am accused of either being a fool or a madman by the morally and ethically infirm.
