Just a little background -- I have recently purchased my first home on 6 January, I have been blessed and fortunate enough to have been able to completely purchase, furnish, have upgrades done throughout the home and anything related to the home "all by myself". In addition, I have retirement plans, mutual funds, students loans in which I have had for several years ---- on my own! I am very proud of my accomplishments.
With that being said, my SO of 4 yrs -- has commented that we should start looking for rings......
However, with that same token I sincerely believe that marriage is forever and I have no intention in divorcing nor want to appear to demonstrate any mistrust and unintentially create resentment.
Nevertheless, I feel very strongly about protecting the items I have acheived on my own (home, retirement plans/mutual, student loans etc. etc.)
Any ideas of how I can make this pre-nup proposal less intimidating and phrase it in some a way that would benefit both of us. I truely love this man but have heard of entirely too many horror stories..........
