The man did not dare to have children for four years because of the bride price to repay the debt
Recently, a couple in Xihu District, Hangzhou City, filed for divorce due to the issue of bride price. It is reported that before the couple got married, the woman's family demanded a high bride price, which was difficult for the man's family to bear. The woman's parents asked for a bride price of 280,000 yuan, but the man's family was ordinary, so he borrowed 150,000 yuan from relatives and friends to give the bride price to the woman's family. Debts are paid off after four years of marriage. However, this did not make their married life happy, but rather made the man feel stressed. In the end, after the guidance of the marriage and family counselor, both parties decided to work together to manage the marriage.
In the end, do you want a bride price for marriage?
1. Ask for a bride price.
The bride price is not only a folk Xi, but also the guarantee of the woman's future life and status, if the woman does not want the bride price, some families will not pay attention to the woman, and even think that the woman is a bully, so the bride price money is necessary.
2. It depends on the situation.
If the three views of both men and women are relatively positive, and the relationship between the two is also very good, then you can discuss whether to pay a bride price or a little less bride price, as long as the man is self-motivated in the future, life must be very good.
Under what conditions can the bride price be returned?
Article 10 of the relevant law of the Supreme People's Court stipulates: "Where a party requests the return of the bride price paid in accordance with Xi customs, the people's court shall support it if it is ascertained that the following circumstances apply:
1. The parties have not gone through the marriage registration formalities;
2. The two parties have gone through the marriage registration formalities but do not live together;
3. The payment is made before marriage and causes the payor to have difficulties in life.
The application of the provisions of item (subparagraph) of the preceding paragraph shall be conditional on the divorce of both parties.
As for how the bride price is to be returned, the marriage contract may be dissolved due to the reasons of the party who paid the bride price, and the amount of the bride price to be returned may be reduced according to the degree of its fault, the economic situation of both parties, and other factors.
