Legal Misunderstanding

Seriously Loving that German Law Right Bout' Now

My long cherished dream of stealing Steffi Graff from Andre Agassi has taken a metaphorical body blow in terms of monetary motivation though. No gain w/o some loss as they say. Loved the dry humor. Undecided about score though . But right about now I'm thinking wistfully about German cuisine sampled at last visit.Yum.

Huh

That was not what I expected. Good job, 5 stars!

Love the dig about the 'refugees' too.

Nice

You knew something was up when he took her philandering with just a minor annoyance. Now she has nothing and no one, oh I'm sorry, she'll have a bastard child soon. Fucking cunt. Our hero, however, will have the life he wants with a woman who appreciates him. Oh well. Shouldn't have cheated.

Btw,

Anyone else think of Lena Dunham if this story goes to screenplay and casting ? No dig at her. She's very talented and up to physical dimensions that role would entail.

Bahahahahahaha!

enough said ! lol chuckle chuckle chuckle ! Frontlinecuckster , Swingerjoe , Bonnie/Vestie are needing strong antacids right now! this is simply great ! 5*'s
Cpprcrk

A good story...

A good story that from the beginning we knew had to have some catch...I just don't understand why she was so distressed...She only had to go living as she had lived all the time: she would be a whore!!! The only problem was maybe no man would pay to fuck her...Until then she was the one paying...4*

The problem?

The actions of the wife were so extreme that it lost credibity. It was a farce.

sadly believable

German women have turned into complete empathy-less whores.
Ruining German blood by sexing with Islamo-Rapefugees and birthing mixed sand-people.

Best of 2016

So far..... 5 & FAV

Enjoyed the story

Well written and very creative!

Too cut and dry

More like a reading of the facts than the telling of a story. And I have to wonder about the legal aspects. Seems that the Courts might award her some substantial amounts of money regardless of her faithlessness. Not a good read.

Nicely written, but....

...the legal aspects you´ve mentioned don´t cut. Since the 1970´s, german law strictly constitutes "no fault" divorces. His wife could have fucked her boyfriends in court without jeopardizing her alimony, due to their marriage having lastet longer than three years and so not concidered a "short" marriage. No prenup? Since the money has been "his" money before their marriage, it would have become community property without prenup (in German: Gütertrennung). All interest gained by 100 mio. in 5 years (25 mios at just 5% "Zugewinn" ) would be community property in any case, needed to be shared equally. Last not least: He knew of her constant cheating. His lack of proper reaction would be concidered as permission (not relevant, though, as only the fact that he didn´t want to continue this marriage really matters).

Nevertheless: Nice little story...

too obvious

1826/365 = 5years plus 1 day for a leap year.

Sorry

but that´s not correct.
In Germany the wealth one spouse had before the marriage is subtracted from the amount that´s divided at a divorce. I´ve seen that recently in a divorce after more than 30 years of marriage. There was no "Gütertrennung", still the money never became community property.
The question of alimony is more tricky. A blatant disrespect can cause alimony to be reduced or forfeited. His "acceptance" might be a point for her if she can prove it, but her pregancy would kill her demand. It´s depending on the judge, I think.

By the way, EgoTrixi, this is the same misunderstanding Anna had. It´s actually not uncommon here, which was the idea behind the story.

It´s explained quite nicely here:
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zugewinngemein schaft

The word "Zugewinngemeinschaft" alone explains it quite accurately. "Zugewinn" can be translated as "added value", "gemeinschaft" as community.

Sorry

Fun little fantasy for the closet crowd, but the ridiculousness of the behavior is topped only by the wrongness of the interpretation of the law.

Author might be a career choice, lawyer not so much.

Fun story

People need to enjoy the story for what it is and not worry about what happens in real life divorces. 5 stars! Keep up the great work.

I get the joke. Its just not that clever or humorous.

He used her from the beginning, and from the beginning knew that she was an intellectual light weight. He probably would have cut her loose anyway, but hopefully with enough money to survive without him. He used her cruel cheating as the excuse to leave her penniless, and who can say she deserves any better treatment?

I think he and the new wife might consider keeping her on as a housekeeper, if she's got enough brains to manage that. He ate her shit for 3 years? He should allow her room and board, and maybe a small stipend, for 3 years, after which he agrees to pay her $300,000 dollars. The deal is she has to live just like she thought she was making him live for the past 3 years, no sex and no dating. I don't think he should try to emulate the humiliation, since that would only drag him down to her level of cruelty and inhumanity. But if she can hang on to a sexless loveless relationship for three years, he can afford to throw her a $300K bone at the end of it. My guess is she won't last 3 months without cock, and then he'll be done with her.

a reminder

A reminder that there is very good reason the Germans are thought to be cold-blooded people.

2*s

Not very interesting. A gimmick story. Stev2244 give you 2*s.
Husband is shallow undeveloped character. Wife is a cartoon villain. At the end of this ,who cares?!
Maybe it's better in the original German.


AMerryman

liked it

gave it a 5. fun little story.

@Anonymous 02/09/16

re:
I get the joke.
He probably would have cut her loose anyway

But would he have dumped her?
He didn't have anything against either her or being married to her for the first two years, in fact he says it was 'pure bliss'.
Having nothing against being with her, and much in favor of it why wouldn't he keep her?

Different

Definitely different from you usual stories but still good.

Fun story

Sure, it was sort of over the top and not the most realistic, but I enjoyed the humor. It was a fine example of BTB not needing violence to be completely satisfying, to those that always claim it's about violence.

Thanks for the story.

Cog

ok story

These type of stories depend on a clever but unexpected twist at the end to be successful. This was as unpredictable as a Bronco superbowl victory so I gave it only 3*. Yes, after seeing that defense tear up the NE cheaters l knew they would win.

Not much to like here

Wife is an obvious piece of shit. I cannot even imagine how he could have been attracted in the first place. Though she seems to act as if she is doing it for him.

What kind of greed let him marry a woman he did not love so he could steal a few years of her life before dumping her? If you plan to screw someone, it is probably easier if you can pick someone who deserves it ahead of time.

The only just ending I can come up with is for the wife of one of those lovers to show up and end them both.

Shallow characters and a sick plot. Not your best work at all.

Are you serious?

lol you really suprised me here. I thought for sure she'd have him sucking her black lovers dick to get it ready for her based on the way your other stories turned out

could have been likable

If he hadnt fully intended to fuck her over in a divorce well before she turned into the whore from hell.

nothing in the story supports that

There is nothing in the story to support the idea that he planned to dump her in the beginning.
However there is much to show that if she had continued to be the wife she had been during the first two years, then after the end of the five years she would still be married to a now very wealthy man.

"Our marriage had been completely different in the beginning. We were so much in love, we had so much fun. It was perfect. I still got warm feelings when I remembered that time."
"I really liked you and I was combining business with pleasure. The first 2 years were pure bliss."

Well...

JPB wrote something similar,and there've been a few where the husband agreed to marry in exchange for money later. One I recall was quite good where the woman had a thing for a worthless black guy, and there was some kind of contentious trusteeship wherein she needed a real husband to keep the buzzards at bay. In the end the bought husband and the licentious wife did fall in love, while worthless black guy had fallen in with the buzzards.

Your story didn't rise to those two, but I gave you a five anyway. I enjoyed the introduction of German domestic law. I suppose it's true.

Jedd Clampett

Thanks for the explanation, stev2244...

...but I´m afraid that a marriage of 30 yrs. and more cannot be compared here - laws have changed quite a bit since then. It is in fact a bit complicated because german couples have the possibility to regulate alsmost anything per contracts. No such thing as a prenup would be needed if each partner would automatically keep his brought-in wealth..As I am a lawyer in Germany myself I am pretty sure of what I´ve said. (check out "Gütertrennung" and "Zugewinnausgleich") On the other hand no lawyer knows all about everything (though no one would admitt it, lol). Let´s just be content and happy about a nice little story. Perhaps in your next one you could put in a little more character developement? I´d find it very useful.

Took it for what it's worth

This was funny, a bit sadistic but funny regardless. Thanks for the laugh.

@anon Mixed sand-people??? *****

Deport them all back to Tatooine! haha!

Liked this story. The dry humor kept it from turning into just another btb or cuck story. Thx for the laughs!!!!!

Different

A very odd story

Like wifey's line near the end....

....it was weird.
While you seemed to have worked very hard to clean up any features of your native language (is it safe to assume it's German?), there was still quite a bit of leakage, albeit more subtle than in other offerings.
The good news? You've improved!
But there is still room to improve further. I hope you will continue to work on certain verb forms, colloquialisms and person/POV features that linger as oddities in the text.
And I agree. Uncle albert's last joke was the cruelest.
The best answer, having endured the horrors of the last 5 years,centered into as a matter of financial necessity, rather than love, now he can move on and live as happy and fulfilling a life as he can imagine. And if he were a real person, I would hope he would.

Thank you.

Goofy Story****

But a fun read. Thanks for sharing.

Not up to your usual standard 3*

Sad but not very humorous and a little obvious, maybe the next one... keep on writing...

funny

You said up front it could have been in humor, and annon complains it was a farce

"A farce is a literary genre and the type of a comedy that makes the use of highly exaggerated and funny situations aimed at entertaining the audience. Farce is also a subcategory of dramatic comedy that is different from other forms of comedy, as it only aims at making the audience laugh."

Correctly advertised. I thought it was pretty funny!

Humor

Is this a kind of German humor? If so I may have to invest more time into German humor. I enjoyed it and having an uncle with black humor? That's really funny.

What an entertaining little story

I didn't figure the numbers out until near the end - although I hadn't tried very hard. I enjoyed the justice.
