You could ask her to sign a postnuptial agreement, but otherwise, nope, we marry who we marry, and we are stuck with that person and their spending habits. The law says we share assets and debts equally with our spouses until we divorce.
I better solution would be to go to marriage counseling. This is a bid issue but there are worse that have been handled at counseling.
