How would you feel if your S.O. asked for a prenup before getting married?

@Mrsbetweenfatandfit Not really weird, considering how many men lose half their shit and their children, since the courts favor women.

@Tatsumi It is weird for who I plan on marrying he has got nothing to steal lol

@Mrsbetweenfatandfit If you end up having kids, than you could still likely disallow him from ever seeing them again. It's not just about money or wealth.

@Tatsumi A prenup prevents custody stuff?
I swear I did not know a thing about that before this minute

@Mrsbetweenfatandfit Hmmmmmmm. I double checked. I was actually wrong. Nope. You can't actually determine anything relative to custody of the children, as it has to be decided on a case-by-case basis. In the U.S., at least.

It seems a prenup only sets rules for property, money, and mediation or arbitration of disagreements and such, along with guidelines of what the spouse's marital responsibilities will be. But. It can't include anything regarding child custody or child support.

I didn't know that. :|

@Tatsumi ah gotcha well then again the guy I plan on marrying has got no property or vehicle, house, not lots of cash in an account so he is safe from me taking anything financially valuable. I'm happy to share a shed if he is there. But if he wanted me to sign some kinda 'you can't have my stuff thing' I'd see no issue
