If you are a male and had a large income would you ask for a Prenup?

If you a male and marrying a girl with money how would you feel if she asked for a Prenub?

If you a woman would you sign a prenub?
As a woman with money would you ask for a prenub?


I personally would never sign one. If the person asked me for a prenub I would walk. Why because it seems to be getting the marriage off on the wrong foot from the beginning.

If I had a lot of money would I ask for one? ( Oh now the shoe is on the other foot you say) If I felt like I had to and there were signs I would walk again and not down the isle.

If I really felt strong about the person then I would remain with the person minus a prenup. As in without marriage.

Then again you know men they always tug as our hearts. So I would say minus marriage.

Sometimes their is a huge difference between love and being a caring person also.

I feel the same way about prenups as I do about the obese college students that now have to take a class to graduate....if you are stupid enough to agree to it, you get what you get.

Marriage is a contract. I think that if more people viewed it as a contract there might be less animosity when it ends. Having said that, I think a prenup is nothing more than an extension of that contract.

I think a prenup is a wise idea. I don't think having a lot of money is necessary. I think it can be something as simple as the house and vehicles.
I am a female and if I were to marry again I might insist on a prenup.
Even if it merely states that I walk with what I came in with.

Just wanted to add a woman can only stay with a man for so long without commitment. I would give it time see how things were going. Once it is put out there it could become a thorn that would lead me to move on.

Must be sweeping generalization week.

Not a generalization just past knowledge. He would have to be committed to me as a couple and I felt secure with that. If I felt like he was committed (not including rumors) Then I would stay. If I felt as if he wasn't committed to the relationship I would leave prenub or not.

If I felt like the man was commited to me and cared yeah I would remain but I wouldn't sign a prenub.

So, what you are saying is that if it was true for you then it must be true for all?

No that is not what I said. I was just about to post before you added that.

You have to know my past tho. I have been known to walk away from it all. Not taking nothing but the clothes on my back. Things can be replaced (anyone ever been in a fire) I ain't been in no fire but how does the story go what is worth more you life or you things.

Just wanted to add one last thing. When I was a bartender everyone got the same service tip or not. When I worked as a waitress there was a couple that use to come in and no one wanted to wait on them because the refused to tip. I was the one that waited on them and I gave them the same service as anyone else.

You are quite a romantic one.
