God damn you bitches are hard to please, haha. No idea where married to a black guy comes from. He's a white guy. He has a minimum wage-ish job. She has been working as a business manager in a veterinary clinic, and was by far the primary breadwinner in the family. She does have a load of school loan debt, but she also has more in savings than I do, and I feel like I'm doing rather well myself.

Obviously Facebook is not a legally binding venue, my point is that if she has announced this to friends and family, its probably not just a ruse to have an affair.

And yeah, while her current job is pretty good, she has a much better job that's already hired her to start as soon as she graduates, and last night she was offered an amazing sounding position with a well funded startup doing consulting work. So, yes, I can see where that, coupled with my my already fantastic job, would lead you to make the assesment that we're both a couple of real "winners". You nailed it. *slow clap*

Onoes knows more about this chick's financials than I know about my girlfriend of almost 3 years. I suck at this.

Gav, I got it.

Right over my head. I reread that thing twice trying to figure out where that comment came from.

And sorry Gravy, I edited my post and ruined your joke. wah wah

What? Confirming savings should always be asked right after explaining that your haircut is not part of a costume. This is just the natural order of "getting to know someone".

Right over my head.
And it didn't catch on your horns?

Reason for Winner status:
Girl: Meets horn haired dude at Ren Faire fresh off a divorce a year earlier, clam jockeys younger girl (was it her friend?) to get access to horns, and decides to dump husband next week. Sharing financials is a nice plus, too. Admittedly not as bad as Captain Dickless the MMO Wonder boy she married, but clearly on the rebound and not thinking carefully.

Dude: Never got past MMO addict status in live. Went full Aanima and let his wife get swept up by horned dude at ren faire. Decides independently to level up by moving in with other woman he met on MMO after long period of not plowing bread winning wife who would have kept him as a well cared for pet if he could only have managed to stick his dick in her once in a while.

Some debate on this, but I have the feeling that her life story is basically she married this guy young and he paid the bills while she was in school. Now that she is about to get her degree and her career is taking off, she is bored with him and ready to move on to less boring things, hence her trolling for forhead kisses at a Ren Fair in the first place. The fact that her hubby stopped providing even a Friday night slam and bam nailed the coffin shut on this, plus he probably never grew up so he was preparing his escape plan of moving on to online game woman, which suggests that Ren Fair Girl is likely rose coloring her side of it a bit (but not much).

Yeah, being rough, but if its the only way to get through to you, so be it. I have watched friends do what you are going through right now, so call me a concern troll I guess. Again, genuinely worried, similar to what Noodle was saying earlier.

Did you miss the hours of skype nightly comments I've made? Yeah, she made a comment about her college loan debt, and I asked if she minded me asking how much she owed. She told me. Later, when talking about her divorce she mentioned giving her Ex probably 1 or 2k so he wouldn't be screwed, as he has nothing in his savings. I asked if they had separate accounts, she told me yes, explained she felt bad saying it but she was basically giving him an allowance as he couldn't manage his money at all. She made a comment about not being concerned for herself as she has X amount in her own savings.

So yeah, I "know" what she told me she has in savings. Now's the part where you tell me she's secretly a lizerd, lying to me because she needs to get closer to lay her eggs in my chest. Bunch of fearmongers.

We're not fearmongers. We're normal human beings who have normal human being interactions. Unless you're in an Asian culture were discussing finances like this is common it is very abnormal in American culture to be that upfront talking with (for all intents here) a stranger about them.

This. It isn't necessarily that she has some master plan to lure you into a honeypot. It is that she isn't stable herself and just odd.
