This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Civil unions work like that over here. I could walk into town hall tomorrow and tell them I want to separate from my SO and all I need is my autograph, not even hers.
What about assets and everything else that goes along with a relationship?
And that’s how it should work right? Nobody should be allowed to keep someone hostage in a “relationship”.
Marriage isn't just a relationship, it's a financial partnership. It's complicated to dissolve because money and shared property are complicated. Fortunately it's easy to avoid. Don't get married, and if you want to end a relationship you can simply walk out the door without a word anytime you want.
I’ve currently been trying to get divorced for almost 12 months. My ex left me for someone else so you’d think it’d be an open and shut case but she’s also being belligerent within the legal process and drawing out the timeline.
I find it incredible how many hoops need jumping through in Australia just to not be legally bound to a cheating spouse.
