BEWARE of Common-law Marriage

[Blue SkiesParticipant 15665]

Common law marriage is theft. In certain states and provinces, if you live with a woman for a certain amount of years. She has most of the rights that a married woman has. She has the right to rip you of your assets in a divorce (even though you two never signed the marriage contract). She might also be granted alimony from your monthly paycheck.

If there are kids that the two of you raise (it doesn’t have to be your biological kids), then the courts will much more easily assume the relationship is a common law marriage.

Why are laws shaped in such manner?
Because women don’t love you. They love what you can provide for her. Look up Briffault’s Law.

This female comedian even admitted to it:

MGTOW is not a movement, it is a way of life.

The government sure as hell doesn’t want to pay for them. So they keep coming up with ways to force the bill on men. This is theft and it’s encouraged.

More men need to go Galt. F~~~ the power.

All my life I've had doubts about who I am, where I belonged. Now I'm like the arrow that springs from the bow. No hesitation, no doubts. The path is clear. And what are you? Alive. Everything else is negotiable. Women have rights; men have responsibilities; MGTOW have freedom. Marriage is for chumps. If someone stands in the way of true justice, you simply walk up behind them and stab them in the heart-R'as al Ghul.

Yup, No Cohabitation is one of the MGTOW commandments i believe. The ignorant THINK they’re safe because they didn’t sign a marriage contract little did they know about this little ticking time bomb of a law that says you don’t need to get married to be considered married in the eyes of the law.

California does not recognize “Common Law Marriage” however it does recognize “Palimony”…where the higher earning boyfriend has to pay the lower earning girlfriend money (like Alimony) for a set period of time if they have been cohabitating for a certain number of years.

Palimony was never codified by the legislature but came about through California’s courts from various court cases the most notable was between the late actor Lee Marvin and his ex-girlfriend.

So in short while a law may give some guide to a person as to the limits on payments, in California things are fuzzier when it comes to Palimony and whether or not it is awarded, how much is awarded, and for how long is it to be paid is pretty much up to the judge.

I do know that in Australia a guy lost half of everything to his former live in girlfriend. And I think this may also be the case in Canada.

So Co-Habitating is a definite No No! Plus there is difficulty in evicting an Ex…

In many cases the time period is far shorter than that. In some US states, there is no time period. All that needs to occur is that you present yourself as a married couple.

The laws on common law marriage vary greatly across the Anglosphere and, with the “sexodus” and “marriage strike” become harder to ignore, are in constant flux. The concept is making a comeback because, as Trapper explains, governments don’t want to pay for them. Check the laws in your location and pay attention to any changes.

Here is the important part: While not every state or province has a common law marriage statute, every state and province will recognize a common law marriage from another state or province with regards to divorce and support orders. What’s more, there are mechanisms at the federal level in both the US and Canada which will help states do that.

If you qualify for a common law marriage in one state and your wife files for divorce in a state which has no such statute, you’re still on the hook because governments would rather you support the c~~~.

Do not cohabitate.

Do not date. Do not impregnate. Do not co-habitate. Above all, do not marry. Reclaim and never again surrender your personal sovereignty.
