Am I wrong ?

My girlfriend and I are thinking of building a new house....

Am I wrong for suggesting to get an agreement made to protect ourselves as individuals in the unlikely unfortunate event that we go our separate ways in the future??? I brought it up today and it really hurt her feelings, which is NOT what I intended to do.....I feel awful....I got the "we need to talk" message 😕

Her professional job, she has a pension...

Me, I'm a grainfarmer and have assets worth 7 figures

Both of us acquired what we have before we met each other....

Opinions please

@VeronicaJane I don't want to hurt her....I love her, and I can see spending the rest of my life with her.....BUT.....this isn't my first merry-go-round either as I was married once before....So was she.....it sucks to have to think "what if", but one has too. I have lots at stake if shit goes south, and so does she. I don't think I'm entitled to half of her pension if it goes bad...I didn't earn it, she did. And I don't think she has a say in the assets I've acquired (and my family before me that I'm now in charge of). In order for me to comfortly move forward, I need to have safety measures in place. That's what I think
