YES totally! these "prenups" are an agreement that insures each of the people involved keep what their Talent, previously owned business, family properties and other assets, always stays with that person and their blood relatives. The exceptions are money and property acquired by joint venture after the marriage. In most states it is equally divided if a divorce occurs. I would sign it with out reservation if I loved the person and they so desired. If it bothers you now perhaps you should not get married. As time passes it could become the thing that causes a divorce. One side or the other will feel they are not receiving their fair share of the agreement,

Personally When ask to sign a prenup,it makes me think the intended doesn't think the marriage will be a lasting one. Has the mind set that if it don't work out I will be able to get out of this with little or no cost. But then again if the prenup is fair and I would not be left devastated maybe I would sign it. But all in all I feel it is an insult and he doesn't respect my intelligence.I'd probably tell him to keep his prenup and find another person to manipulate.

If you want to get married, get a prenup. Prenup's will help in the end, just in case you do get a divorce, and you and your partner can agree to what is put in the prenup before you two sign it. Worse case scenario, at least there won't be so much bickering and pain in the divorce if it does happen.
As for me, I INSIST on it. No I am not rich, and have to work to make a living. Having gone through one divorce, I would not ever consider getting married again without it.
Also, Judge Judy has STRONGLY URGED that ALL marriages should have a prenup, as a judge long before she ever got on T.V. It just makes common sense to have on.

Yes this is perfectly reasonable as who knows what will happen in the future, & why should one partner get their hands on what the other partner had before they were married, that just isn't fair. I would definitely want my partner to sign a pre nup if I had assets.

I signed my husbands prenup. All it does is assure them that your not in it for the money, and in a good relationship, you will gain assets together that are fair game. If you're in it for the long haul, sign it. If you aren't sure where things are going to go, don't get married.

I wouldn't mind signing one to prove my love for him; the same way I would want him to prove his love for me. A prenup is the most practical thing to do nowadays for those with huge assets.

Nope, I would not sign a prenup and would be insulted if asked to sign one. No one has anything I want or need, if I want something bad enough I will work and buy it myself.

Yes, it is about love. And not each others crap. So if you say it is about love and not crap, prove it and sign the agreement. With divorce approaching 50%, having the ideal that love lasts for ever is a misnomer. Idealism needs to get a reality check.

No.....marriage is all about trust, and if one does not trust the other enough to know that the assets are not what they are after, then the marriage is based upon mistrust and will never work anyway.
