I am married and I don't have one. If my wife one day wants to take me for half I don't GAF really. She can have it all. It's only money.

Well at the moment it is controversial whether the court will even uphold a pre-nup; they are pretty controversial

This. Not just a silly way of approaching a 'till death do us part' sacred bond (made before God) but also not worth the paper they're written on :rolleyes:

Men are obliged to pay child support irrespective of marriage, original desire to have the child, or even consent during the act of consummation :s-smilie:


Marriages these days are rarely death do us part :rolleyes:

Good good,I don't know why some complain about having to pay child support

Hence a large proportion of those people really shouldn't be entering into matrimony in the first place :rolleyes:

Excuse me?

Consider rights vs. responsibilities (e.g responsibilities without much in the way of rights, seems like a bum deal to me). I've personally known men who have been shafted by the system/women in this way. Sucks


Agreed!

Huh? I was just agreeing with your statement about men paying child support regardless of anything else

Well that's not nice :frown:
I wouldn't even get married altogether because of the risks of half of my **** getting taken
but if I were to get married, it would be the only option - yes

Will you be getting one,if and when you do get married? And if so,why?


No - I'm not planning on a divorce, and it'd be like setting yourself up for failure. If I want to marry someone I'm going to be 100% sure we want to be together so we won't need a prenup.
Also, btw, from my knowledge of other couples who have been married for decades, go to marriage counselling. Catholics have to and it's definitely effective in showing which couples are going to fall apart within the first few months/years.

yes my company would be crippled in a divorce fight so i'd have to keep the whole thing separate from my personal collections which only components obtained within the relationship duration are eligible for battle
most definitely. Especially given how selfish and greedy women in the west are becoming
Yep definitely. If I get a divorce I don't want the woman into get a single penny of my hard earned cash, no way!

they do have a prenup.
No, me and my partner aren't getting one when we get married. Even if we were well off, we still wouldn't get one I don't think.

Maybe you do not know that but they are not legally binding in the UK


You should qualify that. They are not legally binding, but if one exists hey are the starting point and are generally adhered to by the court unless they think they are unfair.

I doubt a pen nup like that would stand and the court would ignore it.

I am trying to qualify this statement. I have invited a matrimonial solicitor in TSR, but he is struggling to fit me in.
