I would never get married at this point without a pre-nup. If it’s that big of a deal to my fiancé, then they aren’t the right person for me.
Why would taking steps to protect both of you in the event things go wrong destroy the relationship? It’s like saying if we buy insurance we’re planning on dying/crashing/whatever. It’s just in case for your mutual benefit. Do it.
I brought it up on the first date, so my fiancé wasn’t surprised when I had him reviewing terms just days after he bought the ring.
The negative impacts from my lawyer-less, childless, no fault divorce in 2009 (after a whole 30 months of marriage) are seemingly infinite. I would do just about anything to avoid exacerbating or adding to that pain, so a pre-nup is a non-negotiable requirement.
I think you should do one. No one gets married with the intention of divorce. But if ever it happens you will be relieved you protected your assets.
I will never legally bind myself to a romantic partner, seems extremely foolish. But if I were going to, I would only do so with a prenup. I'm not betting my family legacy in the whims of some bed partner.
If I get married again, I will 100% be doing a prenup. My high school sweetheart marriage destroyed my finances. Luckily, I had much less money back then.
I cannot for the life of me think of the source but I read somewhere that marriages w prenups often last longer because it shows the couple can have hard conversations and navigate conflict
Prenups aren't just about protecting assets. They're about open communication, transparency and planning for the future. It's like having a financial roadmap for your marriage, ensuring you're both on the same page about finances even if things don't work out as planned.
I honestly think that prenups are a good idea and I wish I had the sense to do one in my first marriage. I got totally screwed in my last marriage and a prenup would have saved my rear. I would highly recommend anyone do a prenup.
