So this one might not go for everyone but...lets get personal!!

Has anyone had to ask FH or has FH asked you to sign a prenup? If so how did you feel? If not what would you do if he did? Would you be completely affended???

If FH asked me sign up a prenup or vise versa I would laugh b/c we would have nothing on it except our dog!!! I know a lot of people that have and some find it complete insulting! My sisters husband had her sign one. She actually wasnt upset b/c it was actually very fair~

hm i thought about asking FH because i have quite a lot of savings but i have no doubt we wont be getting a divorce, plus the money will be going towards our house which i feel like i would spend regardless and if we really did divorce he would realize i put the down payment down so it would be my house, i dont know i dont have any hugee fortune that i think it would cause problems if we did divorce.

Just an FYI as soon as you commingle funds, the money becomes both of yours. So let's say you used your savings and you paid for 90% of the house, it would still be 50% his. I know no one wants to think about these things, and you think that even if you get divorced, it will be amicable, but the person you divorce is NOT the same person you marry.

I'm speaking for experience because I couldn't even LIST the many ways my dad screwed my mom (and me) over when he left. He swore up and down initialyl that he would be good and make sure my mom was taken care of and he didn't want anything from her and then he basically made her fight for everything. It was so ugly.

good point!!!!!
