@linds: I don't see anything in the article about him not helping her pay for anything. In fact, just the opposite; in the article he points out all the money he's given her for help with debts and such. And your references to the cost of the wedding, er did you read the article? There was no wedding.
Moreover, suggestions that the man needs to repay her for costs incurred to her by the relationship ignore the costs incurred to him. For starters, there's that big ass ring he bought. And the end of the article makes it pretty clear that she is keeping the ring (or more to the point, she's going to sell the ring and keep the money.)
Now I'm not saying that she should pay him back for the ring in order to make things financially even. I think it is perfectly within her rights to keep the ring; after all, he chose to give it to her. What I'm getting at is that in the exact same way she chose to give up her job and move to be with him. It is not just for people to be able to (successfully) sue each other to compensate themselves when their decisions don't work out the way they hoped.
