I am in the middle of a discussion with my co-worker who is getting ready for her wedding in three weeks. her fiancé who she has been with for 3 years, just about 1 month ago approched her with a prenup. In it, there are no clauses that reads she will receive anything from him if the marriage falls apart. 3 weeks to go until the big day and she has yet to sign it and is extremely confused. For me personally, its not about the money especially if you are secure enough and are already working, but its about the idea that someone you are suppose to spend the rest of your life with is evaluating how much u are worth.

Your thoughts and would u sign one? The question doesnt only apply to females.

I don't think prenups are necessary at all. If you're marrying someone, you should be able to trust them, and if you trust them then what's the need for a prenup?

Won't you feel that hint of dissappointment that you future spouse actually brought up the whole prenup thing? Granted with the crazy divorce rate no marriage is guaranteed to last forever...

i agree, its a smart thing to do for both parties.

ofcourse its not romantic, its not meant to be but the sad fact is that divorce is becoming such a common thing in society and many people who didnt have prenups are losing money and things they have worked hard for.

you never want to think that things might go downhill with the person your about to marry, but anything could happen so its just best to be safe than sorry.

and yes i would sign it.

personally i dont have a problem signing it but i want something out of it. I dont want to walk away without anything if I find out later down the road that after 15 years of marriage, he is cheating on me and wants a divorce. I advise my coworker, to add some clause and conditions, for example I suggested she gets something out of every year she is married to him or even having his children. :)
