so i have to share this conversation with ya'll cuz it made me laugh my ass off
emily: my mom wanted me to marry this guy i don't know so that i could apply for financial aid as an independent
me: holy shit that's a good idea. that could so work. just marry a guy, become independent, get complete financial aid, and then get a divorce after you graduate.
emily: yeah, but it would be weird for me because i'm dating spencer. like, how weird would it look to have spencer come over when i'm married.
me: just have spencer and your husband pretend to be friends. and sleep in separate bedrooms so that your husband doesn't have to be in the same room with you and your boyfriend.
emily: that's true. we'd probably even get married couple housing on campus completely paid for. and spencer would be living in the dorms, so we'd be really close to each other.
me: and i don't see too much of a moral dilemma if you don't get married in a church. just go to the courthouse and get a marriage certificate.
emily: and just don't sleep with him, then you would never actually consummate the marriage. it would just be like a business partnership. and you wouldn't have any accidental kids to worry about.
me: and sign a prenuputial agreement that basically says that at the time of the divorce, the assets aren't split 50-50. each person gets to keep whatever is in his/her name. that would prevent the wealthier partner from having to pay off the poorer one. even though the poorer one probably wouldn't take it.
emily: yeah, so you would get married, get financial aid, then split without any consequences. you would actually make money rather than lose it because you wouldn't have to pay off loans. you would be able to keep all of the money that you make, plus get a free college education.
me: that is actually good idea, but it's gotta be hard finding two guys like us who would be willing to do this. i mean.. how would we do that, put up flyers? not many guys need to be independent.
emily: i bet there are guys out there willing to do it. who doesn't want a free education?
me: ok, we'll see about that.
it's really not a bad idea.. it's like getting a male roommate but with a free education attached to it. and the divorce really can't be painful or stressful if you aren't in love with him and you have a prenup agreement. i guess it depends on the couple.. anyone want to get married? hahahaha :)
