Quote From: renagadeA prenuptual will never prevent a divorce - it just helps in the distribution of assets and prevents one party from getting more of something. I am 58 and don't like them. I come from the school that says when you get married you had better talked things over and be Mature enough and 'Old enought to understand what you are doing!!!
In a sense it is an easy way out - to some degree it can be depending on how it's written. I do know what you mean when you say 'you feel humiliated' - make sure each of you know whats what.
Remember what Doc Phil has said - a predictor of future performance is past performance.

Being the owner of my own business that I have worked many years as a single mother, I agree that a prenuptual is VERY important. I have seen too many women (and men) walk away with only half a business when they split up when the other person never even spent two hours working in the business. And both parties should have legal representation when the agreement is being written/finalized in order to prevent problems down the road.
