Honestly, I don't think you are off base in having this discussion before making a big change.
Let's see...people(not just women) get stupid about money. Yeah, we may not be talking million+ penthouses here(I say that fully knowing that a million dollar home in Vancouver is a step above roach infestations but whatevs) but if its on the table and a relationship goes sour, it becomes something to fuck you with.
Next, how many of us have had a live-in situation go south? I've had one, dino has had one...I think a lot of people have. At the end, you want to crash out and get it done as quickly as possible. Here we have Jason with a girl thats looking for a handout.
And that conversation that says " hey, the house is yours until we get married. If we break up I'm just going to move out, no questions" is going to become an extremely faint memory when you get drunk and fuck her sister one night, video tape it and share it on revscene and she finds out(planting seeds lol).
With my ex, we rented, and we quickly divided mutual purchases and it was still awkward as hell. I would recommend to anyone to make that process like a band-aid..get in, get the job done and get out.
There is something about watching your ex's eyes quickly shrink wrap in tears as the apartment starts to develop that empty space echo that really affects your ability to pivot a sofa out of the room. Especially when you have to ask her to lift her ass off it so you can move it.
I'm still mad about that...I had told her specific times I was moving so she could stay away, not sit there and watch.
