Women initiate most divorces. Somehow they got it into their head that marriage is about being entertained.
It may be nice to think this, but it is patently untrue.

Common law marriage doesn't just happen if you live together. You both have to agree you are married and declare yourselves husband and wife. It's not like your live-in girlfriend can get uppity one day and say "tricked ya *****, gimme all your assets!"
Do not take Metro's advice as accurate, because it isn't, and it could cost you.

It turns out that there's a money sucking black hole where my ex-wife used to be.
Because there's a dramatic shift from "we've agreed to stay on good terms for the sake of the kids" to "my wife is trying to bleed me dry." .
Women initiate 2/3rds of divorce, and the number goes even higher if the wife went to college.
It's true that you can't be tricked into a common law marriage. You need to declare it pretty damn clearly. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common-...n-law_marriage
Rather than quote random statistics, I'll just point out that my estimate of about 50/50 is based on about ten years of domestic relations practice. Based on anecdotal evidence from several others, my practice is no different than most.
