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.

It is though, if it's amicable. It only gets complicated if you disagree on who gets what.
If there aren't kids or pets involved, just hire an arbiter and be done with it in a day.
I've been in this situation. Amicable. Split evenly. No kids. A half hour with my buddy who is a lawyer to sign papers and done.
If finances also are separate it can be very quick
That depends on the laws in your area though. In some areas, separate accounts mean something, whereas in others, any income after marriage is considered combined, regardless of who owns the accounts.
That said, if it's amicable, it's fast regardless. Just get a third party to work out the details and it'll be fast.
