I wonder if going into a marriage defensively will ironically contribute to a divorce later.

While I can see certain advantages to a prenup, I also see the hidden message: that you don't trust your spouse.

"I wonder if going into a marriage defensively will ironically contribute to a divorce later"

Maybe this is a bad analogy, but I keep thinking of words like "regulation" and "manipulation" and "control" when I hear prenup. And those are Democrat words. The 'rats always have to control every little thing.

" I also see the hidden message: that you don't trust your spouse."
Given the existing state of family law, and how it is impacting people, the only meaning left to the word "trust" is that of a legal arrangement, like "revocable trust" or "irrevocable trust", or maybe "in god we trust" on the money - but fiat money, too, is a legal arrangement. All other meanings have been irrevocably lost in the mists of time.

Nooooo.....my husband had an EX-spouse...i.e. woman he didn't trust....so I gladly signed a pre-nup....that was 21 plus years ago.....If people REALLY are in it with committment....I don't see what the problem is.
