Economic Marriage

When two people stay together in a marriage because they can't afford to divorce in today's economy. They can't sell the house in this market, and can't afford their own housing, insurance, so they stay legally married, in the same house, but live their own lives.

John and Stacy are both back on the market, but they're stuck in an Economic Marriage.
