I think I might enjoy living in a flat like this:
www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2092504...s-home-Starship.html

I have to admit, I am also enjoying the comments, i.e.:

> If you''re a guy, don''t get married. This is what will happen to you - or something like it.

> Talk about marrying the arch enemy, she only wants to ''Klingon'' to what she believes to be hers!


:huh:

I must say it does look good, but I need my clutter around me, so I won''t be putting in an offer!

jjones123,

This article rings so many bells to my own situation. My STBX is obsessed with ''material things'' of a slightly different nature, the difference is that his ''addiction'' has cost us both dearly.

For legal reasons I can not say too much, all I will say is that our joint marital assets have ''mysteriously'' disappeared without my knowledge or consent and 18 months on I am struggling to get a fair valuation on them. They were our life savings, our pride and joy but my STBX does not see it like that. Boys and their toys...or in our case a hobby that meant as much to both of us, but he denies me the courtesy, he thinks I have no rights to lay claim on what is our''s.

Obsession can be the downfall of a loving relationship, when the wife (or husband) comes so far down the pecking order that the material items become far more important than what really matters the most and that is....family.

Do not mock the wife who wants to sell her assets in the case of this article, it may be the only life savings she has, but due to her X''s obsession with Star Trek, she is the one who becomes the party pooper.....but never forget that addiction is a time bomb in any relationship, she only wants her fair share!

Take care for now FoS x

Fair point FoS. Thanks for posting this view. No offense of any kind intended. (I fear I must have been having a grumpy moment yesterday).

Best,
JJ
