Nah, wouldn't be offended at all. I am a clever woman to squeeze the hell out of the finances during the marriage and sock it all away, that when time comes for a divorce, I am very much on top too. Give me the pen, Bud.
Even though I most likely would not get married at all, I definitely wouldn't get married without a pre-nup. No girl is entitled to any of my assets. She can work for her own money. Whatever I give her, she should be grateful for, not think she can just take at will. No thanks.
I don't think I would marry someone who trusted me so little. Trust is a part of true love. I think the way to protect the children, etc. would be with a will. If it is not until death do us part, it is not a real marriage.
If I bought you a brand new car and I said I would feel more comfortable if you had insurance in the event that somthing happens. Would you feel that I did not trust your driving ability also?
(Remove the fact the you need insurance to drive a new car off the lot.......that is if you did not pay cash for it or it's a state requirement)

Marriage is also, like it or not, a business arrangement as well. When you consider that you are now tied with someone for good and bad, and for financial matters.
It is easy to say that " I would never sign one" or "I would never want one", but, if you were a multi millionaire, or had a lot of assets to protect, large inheritance, etc , you would probably want one.
Almost half of marriages end in divorce, despite your best intentions when you enter into it, and, it is only smart to protect yourself

So if I wanted you to sign a pre-nup, you'd refuse because you say it's not about the money, it's about the trust? Well if that's true, you should sign it, because if it's not about the money and the marriage is going to last forever, there's no harm putting your signature on another piece of paper guaranteeing that now is there?

Something tells me, you are right, you probably won't get married !
