With some of the judges and the decisions they are forcing upon the public, don't be suprised to one day have a judge say something like the following:

This man required his fiancee to be to sign a prenuptial agreement before he would marry her. She refused. Because she refused, the man refused to go through with the marriage ceremony. The court finds this act reprehensible. Since the court cannot force the man to marry the woman without the prenuptial agreement, the woman must be compensated for the loss of "benefits" she might have acquired as this man's wife. Therefore the court awards this woman 1/2 of all assets this man may acquire over the next 50 years, including the current home inwhich he currently resides.

I expect at sometime your scenario will apply to men who never even met the woman but she wants his assets anyway.

We're getting there. IIRC, people are suing over dropping engagements, demanding financial compensation for the time they spent waiting to get married. Whatever happened to the simple "she keeps the ring if he drops" rule?
