When i have M.D. after my name, chances are i'm going to need my girl sign one of these before we get married. Unless, of course, her income is comparable. You can never be too careful these days. If one day she decides to not work, gets bored and decides to fool around a bit, she is not getting have of what i provided.

Well... you did not address the 'propose' part...  Yup.. Like you would follow me to Africa and live in a tent under fire. I think I'm gonna have to trick you just to get you to go to a semi primitive campground.. Hide the tent and backpacks under luggage in the trunk... Show you a pamphlet of a resort.... Then don't stop for anything till we get to our destination. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In regards to the prenup.. Why would I ask or someone accept a marraige proposal if there is a suspicion and need to prevent financial harm? Unless the marriage is for other reasons, such as naturalization or other business reasons. Personally? I refuse to live my life around an effort to protect myself...and in fear of things that have not happened yet. In times that I have lived my life that way? I was a complete @ss.. Often being offensive in anticipation of someone offending me... Such as a few in these forums continually demonstrate. My previous marriage ended amicably. She got what she wanted from the material aspect of the marriage. Left me what I came in with and some of the communal property. When we decided to split? We were done arguing. We did plenty of that as a married couple. Niether of us saw any reason to continue it as a divorced couple. If that was what we wanted? We probably would have stayed married. |

Not sure I'd marry again....after being through a divorce I understand, like it or not, there are financial implications when splitting up....now I have too much I've worked hard for to let that slip away....I would have us both sign a prenuptial agreement....Its smart financial & asset planning, that is all....

A prenuptial agreement is a legal document that trumps the laws of your state. It assures that once you decide your vows of "for better or worse" meant not exactly that, you are then going to make certain your spouse does not live as they have become accustomed to during the marriage.

JMO For better or worse doesn't mean stay together...the reality is marriages have less than a 50-50 chance of lasting until death due you part....if I own a home going into the marriage & it doesn't work, I want to leave with that home still being mine.... and that is probably why I won't marry again.... |

That makes perfect sense to me....if you live in a state that does not recognize community property and such. Realistically? What the wife is entitled to is half the value of the house that has matured while you were married. Nothing more. And not half the house. I see your point, and am well aware of the divorce statistic. Fact is, people walk in and out too quickly. |

I was engaged to a woman who merited that kind of thinking. She most likely would have taken everything I had.. Based on the fact that she was in the process of taking everything I had while in a courting relationship. I came to my senses. That was all the prenuptial agreement I needed. To agree with my instinct, that I should not marry that woman. There are women in my past.. and one in my present that are worth any material thing I have. If it means they and theirs live a better quality of life. My Ex-wife included. I have lost and regained my possessions a few times in my lifetime.. It comes and goes. The material has no kind feelings for me. Honest love of a genuine and good woman? Not so much. |
