I am seriously considering getting married again. I am the wealthy one and I thought about prenuptial agreement lately. But my boyfriend doesn't feel comfortable with it, because he believes that he would never leave me first. He also said, if the marriage fails because of his fault, he would give all his assets to me; but if I am the one who brings up divorce then I should give him some of my assets. He believes by doing this, we both would seriously try our best to keep the marriage work and grow old together. I could not argue with him, and I thought there is some truth in what he said, although back in my head I am still a little worried.
My question: will my assets before this marriage be protected JUST IN CASE the marriage falls if we don’t have pre-nuptial agreement? I remember one friend told me that, by default, California law states that the assets before marriage is not community assets, which means the other spouse is not entitled to it even without prenup. Is this true
