Firstly, DH and I have no issues other than everyday niggles most people have and no expectation of any imminent relationship meltdown.
I am just raising this to be sensible as I know things don't always work out.
In short, DH originally said I'd be named on deeds to family home bought in wedlock (all previous dwellings were his before marriage) but has backtracked. Reason being I may reduce amount we can borrow so he's reluctant to name me on mortgage (having babies; also only 4days/wk for 8 months I will have worked in between mat leave) and thinks having disconnect between that and names on deeds may cause problems.
Some of my savings are going into the house, although in past DH has given me money to max tax free investments, so even those are partly down to him.
So basically; should I be worried for my security in case of anything breaking down relationship-wise? He's kind and loving, but burned from failed marriage in early 20s. His family are too but very much blood-tied; they'd be entirely blinkered and pro-progeny if things went wrong between us. DH more philosophical about his contribution to first wife's actions than MIL is and by all accounts he was shat on severely!
Thanks for any advice.
