If you don't love him, what's the use of money if you're miserable?

If a person is very greedy they could not get a divorce. But if love means more to a person then all that money then yes and love means more to me then having 500 grand a year.

You can answer this question easily enough: did you get married because you loved him, or because you thought he would bring you financial security?

Mind you, it's possible you loved him and he made $30,000 a year when you married him, and over time your love for him dwindled even as his income went through the roof. Odds are that isn't the case, however.

Tell you what: if he thinks you love him, and you don't, you should be honest with him. Here's what might happen:

#1: he wants to stay married, and so is willing to work at restoring your love for him;

#2: he wants to get divorced, because he's not willing to work at the relationship;

#3: he doesn't care, because he's asked his friends a variation on your question: "would you divorce a girl if she was gorgeous and incredible in bed, but you didn't love her?"

The one thing you shouldn't do is lie; don't pretend to love him if you don't. That'll just make you miserable now, and him miserable later when he figures it out.

Oh, and don't think that his income enters into his own views of your relationship; when I met my wife, I made very little, but now I make six figures. We have a great relationship, and not once have I thought "say, I wonder if she's fallen out of love for me, but sticks with me because I have a good income?"

Why be with someone you do not love? what do you mean you stay for the money that's dumb. If you are any kind of decent person you do not stay with someone that you do not love just because they have a little money. that makes you not any better than a h**ker. there for the money. Even if you are just with one man. I don't mean to be be mean but you need to stand on your on two feet not count on a man to give you the money. That way you can make your on decision and not having anybody tell you what you have to do. well work will have some say.

Is this a hypothetical question? Why be miserable for money, when he's not going to be. He's in a position to buy whatever he needs, even someone to take care of his personal needs. People get married for different reasons, but if love isn't in it, things will sizzle in time.

Unless you have a Pre nup you should make out like a bandit so there is no reason to be miserable. There is a lot a girl can do being single and with alimony payments coming in =)

My happiness is the most important factor. So if I am not happy hell yeah I would divorce him. Thats why we as woman should be independent and not depend on a man for his wealth. Companionship should be free that way if it does not work out, you lose nothing.

If I didn't love him I wouldn't marry him in the first place. And someone who did was only after the money and not love, so I guess there is no problem as they likely don't care if they don't love him.

What does his income have to do with this? If you don't love someone, you shouldn't be with them. It's not fair to them, and yourself in the end. Yes, you may have some nice things, but in the end, you will still be unhappy. Better to make your own living, find someone that you love completely, and be as happy as you can.

Yes. Life isn't about money. I'd rather live in a cardboard box with a guy i'm in love with, than live in a mansion with a guy I have no feelings for.
