Ah ok, well I wasn't referring to victim in a legal sense.

And I'm sorry, nobody forces you into marriage, particularly without a prenup. If you marry someone who is only in it for your money that's your fault. When you marry someone you know that the potential for divorce and the associated financial ramifications exists, you've willingly exposed yourself to the consequences. Having them come to pass does not make you a victim.

So what you're saying, is willingly engaging in anything where you know the potential risks, and having those risks come to pass removes your status as a victim? I'm not asking this legally, but ethically (in the sense that someone who is cheated on in a relationship is a victim).
