I have seen a lot of people go into marriage with the mindset of prenuptial agreements, and if there should be anything going against the agreement, then they are not in for it. Some people might even discard their marriage just because of prenuptial agreements. They will say that if there is no court marriage or if they are not legally married, then there is nothing like love between them.
It's funny at times, though people have their reasons for opting for a legal agreement, and to some, there is nothing as such. What's funny is that sometimes some people have no good intentions for the prenuptial agreement; most times, they have the mindset to scam their partners.
I remember the case of the football player Hakimi who almost lost half of his wealth to his partner after a disagreement came up between them and she filed a divorce. Only a few might get free from this kind of scenario.
Let love prevail.
I can't go for a marriage with legal agreement. I believe there is no need for any agreement so far there is love between both parties and the union got them together as one already. So without any intent of sharing any asset things should go well.
Despite the fact that some people have these prenuptial agreements, their marriage still didn’t last longer and there are some that opted for it and it really worked out for them too. Also on the same note, some people didn’t have those agreements and had the sweetest marriage ever and some didn’t and also didn’t have a good marriage life.
It's just best if we could do whatever is best for us, be it prenuptial agreements or without the agreement.
I believe if there is love and understanding, then there is no need for it. Though to some having the mindset that if there is divorce then all of the assets would be divided into two is something that curbs some people into love and not giving them the room to get themselves free from the chain they are in and there might be a reason some people keep experiencing toxic relationships and poor family upbringing.
Though from a religious perspective, my religion also doesn’t tolerate legal agreements like court marriages. So until you get yourselves engaged and married then you are good to go. And if there should be a divorce, there is no equality in sharing the assets, but each side departs with whatever they have achieved in the union so far.
Even when it comes to the kids, there are some rules which should be abided and nothing is forced on anyone. That's how it should be. Marriage is a forever deal and it should blossom in love and not for some other materialistic reasons.
