Do you think prenuptial agreements are necessary? ❤️— Mel Mann, MBA, M.Ed. 🎗 (@MelDMann) December 4, 2018
Answer: Yes, because they're a good way to weed out the undesirables. I used to believe prenups weren't necessary because people marry each other for love and companionship, but my eyes were opened after reading how many couples had bitter divorces, and the wife cleaned the husband out; left him almost penniless. The men were well-off, very successful. People change in marriage; the person you married 20 or 30 years ago isn't the same person 30 or 40 years from now (if y'all make it that far). All prenups do is ensure you leave with what you came into the relationship with. Make it so bad, some spouses get upset when their partner asks them to sign a prenup because in the spouse's eyes, (s)he doesn't trust them. Well...if people weren't so foul, prenups wouldn't be needed, but because people marry for ulterior motives, a prenup is necessary to protect the person coming into the relationship. Not everyone comes into your life with good intent, so you would be foolish to open your heart to an undesirable person. God gives us a brain, and he expects us to use it.
What if you're engaged to someone and you ask them to sign a prenup, they get upset and leave? Any (wo)man who gets upset at their partner's request to sign a prenup and leaves is doing the other person a big favor. The newly single person should see it as God looking out for them by showing them what that person was really about.
