Marriage with no prenup

Would you marry a person who wouldn't agree to sign a prenuptial agreement with you? Is this a reason to cancel a marriage?

MY inferiority complex isn't as good as YOURS

Pre-nups these days are a good idea,but a little depressing.I think if you own property together or one partner inherits a ton of money,a pre-nup is as vital as car insurance.But that's just one divorcee's opinion.There are a alot of people who will answer this post who still believe in marriage.

Happy holidays!

Trust no one and Respect is earned not given!!!!

If U think U have to have a prenuptial agreement with the " person that U are in love with and are about to marry " Then U my friend are NOT IN LOVE!!!!! What are U thinking??!!  Hell yes it is a reason to cancel a marriage becouse U shouldent even be thinking about things like that when U are in " LOVE "..  If U are thinking about pernuptuals then give it up it will never work anyways!!

If you've had a bad experience I say go for the pre-nup.They can be flexible or iron clad and drawn up any way you want.There can be many stipulations or just the specifics.It's up to you.I see both sides.I can see how the other person wouldn't want you planning your divorce before you even swap vows.I would tell them a pre-nup is as much about protecting them as it is covering your own ass.I wish you luck!

Prenups are a good idea i think are a good idea....you dont want to be one of those girls who gets married and some long time down the road something might happen and you dont have one ur going to be in court anyways fighting for everything over property over your children and etc. if you dont have one well your perpared you got everything already.........and yeah it's not dumb you can love someone and still do this. it's being prepared think of when you watch movies like the movie called last kiss i think it is you never no what can happen....Love .....think about children what could they go threw when this might happen.......i love my man above all else.....and were engaged....and we are so in LOVE ....we are young ....both 21......we been together over 5 years and and we just within the few days got done talking about it and we've seen a lot of movies....about people who love each other so much and they get married and then shit happens lifes and their in court and things and  i thought about pernups and talked to him about it and he didn't agree but we agreed on one......and it is out of here ......i asked for all this stuff like 100% custody and rights of any children that we have together(we dont have any right now) 75%  of any assets we have in our future together .....if we were to ever to get divorced for the first 9months full financal support and 3yrs after that is 60% financal support just for the 3yrs.....so thats what i ment when i said it was out of here.......he agreed after awhile lol and we are getting married no matter......i hope i kinda explained it good but this is my experience. sorry so long

Yes, especially if the prenup I presented was disadvantageous for him/her, or if the prenup tried to separate finances during the marriage. Prenups should only protect was was owned individually before the marriage. Marriage should be a partnership. If you are going to keep finances separate, why bother getting married? Just live together.
