prenup if all you guys are smart.
100% agreed. I've watched people's marriages go down the crapper due to one or the other side, and usually the opposite side that did nothing wrong was the one that had to pay out the nose! (I've seen this happen for both sides, a woman screwing over a man for everything they had, and a man screwing over a woman for everything THEY had).
With the much higher divorce rate, it would be very wise to get a prenup.

If this is so commonplace, how come there's nobody itching to hook me up with anyone?
Beats the everloving Hulk outta me. It's even more stupid to get the "oh you'll find someone" but the person that said that won't help you hook up with anyone. People also always say "well, if you have a ton of friends of the opposite sex, they may be willing to help you out" but that only works if you're like you're some super-popular guy or girl or at the very least someone who has nothing really wrong with them. If you have anything wrong with you they won't help you any more than a shot in the foot will. This is from my experience, anyway. Only thing you can do is sit and hope, and even that is difficult.
