सिर्फ infertility (orchidopexy surgery के कारण) को impotency नहीं माना जाता। Impotency का अर्थ है consummation करने में असमर्थता। यदि आप वैवाहिक संबंध स्थापित करने में सक्षम हैं, तो Section 12 Hindu Marriage Act के तहत पत्नी का दावा कमजोर रहेगा। Alimony (भरण-पोषण): यह धारणा गलत है कि Govt. Class-1 officer होने पर पत्नी alimony नहीं मांग सकती। Section 24 Hindu Marriage Act एवं Section 25 Hindu Marriage Act के तहत कोर्ट दोनों पक्षों की आय देखकर निर्णय करता है। हालांकि, उसकी अच्छी आय आपके पक्ष में एक मजबूत factor है जिससे alimony कम या nil हो सकती है। Wedding Expenses की मांग: कानून में ऐसा कोई प्रावधान नहीं है कि पति को पूरे शादी के खर्चे वापस करने पड़ें। यह मांग कानूनी रूप से enforceable नहीं है। Jewellery/Stridhan: जो गहने पत्नी को दिए गए (stridhan) हैं, वह उसे लौटाने होंगे। जो गिफ्ट आपको या आपके परिवार को दिए गए, वह वापस करने की बाध्यता नहीं है, जब तक विशेष परिस्थितियाँ न हों।
