It's such a touchy subject, so how would you go about bringing up the topic of wanting a prenuptial agreement with your spouse to be?

Any person that has been through a divorce will have no problem with this conversation, as it works both ways.
However, for the new people...you are talking about the end of your marriage before it begins. So, you want to have sex with him and toss him like a rag when you are done....Sounds like it's already over, and you want to keep yours. That's a Holly-weird romance, not love. True love is very, very, very hard to find. Whatever makes you both happy is what matters.
Okay, feelings aside (last paragraph), it is good you are doing this now. This is called 'communication'. Excellent! Know that if you make it though this conversation together, your relationship will be stronger. You should never feel like you should have to hide something from the ones you love.
But, I'm thinking it's over...that's just me.

If you need a prenuptial agreement, maybe you should just live together instead. There is no way to say this nicely. Your spouse to be will be completly offended as they should be. I would have told my husband to keep his money and I would have walked. And yes I've been divorced I lost everything. I was with my current husband for 5 years before we got married. I waited until I knew in my heart and soul that I would do anything for him and I trust him completely. I don't mean to be pushy I understand about protecting your assets. Like I said though maybe the marriage part should wait. Try living together for a few years first. No need to rush.

If it is something you believe in strongly....
Honest and straight forward, the only way to go.
Your future partner has the right to know what your
rules and boundaries are going to be, before the fateful day.
You owe it to yourself to set this up properly.

Look at Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey....they didn't have one and Nick was more famous at the time....when they got divorced...which they "never" would...she ended up paying HIM...Not that, that helps your answer. But, I would say they protect everyone. They should be unnecessary, but these days it's not worth the risk. Just speak from your heart. Make sure they know you love them...tell them it's a test of love, if you never divorce...then you never use it. SO not to worry.

Be very honest and open is the best way to bring up the subject.

Yeah, touchy, don't really know. When one has a large estate, and the other doesn't.......See your attorney first, and get some ideas from him/her

There's no way to tip toe around it, you have to come right out with it. You'll find out how they really feel when you talk about it.
