Truer words were never spoken.I commiserate with you my friend.I now tell every young man that the two most important words in the English language are Pre Nup.
Mine is even shorter; “Don’t” :)

No matter how wonderful she may be, the chaos is coming. No logic, no warning. Don’t try to make sense of it, no one ever will. It is simply a force of nature that cannot be changed.

Indeed. Marriage by the state is fundamentally a default property contract that MASSIVELY favors the female, whether their or children involved or not.
My first wife cleaned me out. Emptied the bank accounts one day, loaded up a truck in a blizzard with EVERYTHING in the house and moved across the continent in the dead of night. No prenup that time.
After that, it was prenup-city for me. Already saved my bacon once, and if things go sour again, I expect to at least still have some bacon left afterwards.
(BTW, I have a friend who joked that he knew it was going to cost him a house every time he got married.)
