    Default single girl considering marrying a divorced dad, need advice

    I have been dating this guy for more than a year and lived together for 6months. His divorcing still not finalized because they are fighting for custody. I love this guy but I worry about whether we will be happy if married. First, his ex is greedy, she hasn't worked for years, but took all the money when she left. This left my bf close to broke. My bf makes about the same amount of money I make, but because of child support and morgage for car and house, he is very tight. Therefore most time I will spend more money to cover the living cost. He has no saving at all. I worry that if we get married, I will be the one paying for most stuff and later as his son grows up and need more money for car or other stuff, it will come from my saving or our saving which I think should be used for our kids. I also worry that his son would grow up and become as greedy as his mom. So I am thinking talki him into writing a will when we have our kids. Please give me some advice.
