If Love should be enough i don’t think that should happen in this Generation only love cant be enough in a relationship if love can be enough let take a look back in the day God created Adams and Eve they Know nothing Else than Love, they were taught by God to Love one another but the serpent wasn't satisfied with it and deceive Eve into giving Adam the apple to eat now their eyes were cleared and saw the true reality of the word.

In Essence what am trying to say is the correction should love be enough should have been corrected from that time not now where So many causalities have taken place and so many things are being blind by us it affect the marriage and so many more i will list those casualties but before that when we humans saw we cant balance the love in a relationship's thats when Prenuptial Agreement falls in yo balance a marriage the two must not break the vow they made to each other, i will listing those casualties that’s affecting a marriage.

In today’s dating landscape, one topic that often sparks heated debates is the notion of prenuptial agreements. For many, the idea of signing a prenup before walking down the road of marriage feels like a step toward skepticism rather than a leap of faith in love. After all, shouldn’t love be enough to build a lasting foundation?
But is it possible for love and pragmatism to coexist in a healthy relationship, or do financial discussions like prenuptial agreements undermine the very essence of romance?

While the idea of prenuptial agreements might seem unromantic, it’s important to acknowledge that marriage isn’t just an emotional commitment it’s also a legal and financial one. Prenups can serve as a practical safeguard, especially in cases where one or both partners have significant assets, children from previous relationships, or complicated financial histories. They provide clarity and transparency, preventing future disputes in the event of a divorce.

Finances

For some couples, discussing finances before marriage is a sign of maturity, not a lack of trust. It’s a way of showing respect for each other’s individual achievements and ensuring that both partners are on the same page about their future. A prenup can be seen as a tool for financial fairness rather than a sign of doubt about the relationship’s longevity.

But here’s the question does signing a prenup mean that love isn’t enough? Does it imply a lack of faith in the relationship or a preemptive end to the “forever” promise?

For many, love and legal protection aren’t mutually exclusive. You can love your partner deeply and still want to protect yourself and your future. Think about it love might not shield you from financial hardships or complexities down the road. Marriage can be blissful, but life is unpredictable. People change, circumstances shift, and things don’t always go as planned.

At the end of the day, whether or not a couple decides to get a prenup is a deeply personal decision. For some, the act of signing one may feel like a betrayal of their emotional connection. For others, it may feel like a way to ensure that the love they have can thrive without the weight of financial worries. There’s no right or wrong answer it’s all about what feels right for the individuals involved.

If I were in the position of getting married, I’d definitely want to approach the conversation with my partner openly and respectfully. A prenup could be a responsible, sensible choice especially if there are significant financial stakes or complicated personal circumstances involved.

It’s not about expecting failure; it’s about planning for the unexpected. Just because you’re preparing for potential challenges doesn’t mean you don’t believe in the strength of your love.

Ultimately, love is what keeps a marriage alive, but a prenup can serve as a safety pin to allow both partners to focus on the joy of their union without worrying about future financial uncertainties. And who knows? Having a candid, mature discussion about finances before marriage might even strengthen the bond you share.

I would rather say that the marriage institution has been modernised from what it ought to be. Marriage qqs supposed to be an agreement between two people who will love and keep learning to live each other.
Having to sign a prenup is an addendum to the whole ceremony and to make the two parties have a safe haven in time of eventuality.

Yea but the generation now is messed up

Everyone has their personal decision and belief to prenuptial agreements and they should do what works best for them but to me, I believe when there is true love and commitment, the marriage won't even be built on assumptions about what if anything happens later.

Yea thanks for sharing your thoughts

Do you know that the idea of marriage according to the one who created it was that the man and woman will be one? Respectfully or not, once my partner agrees to something like this, it’s a red flag.

It shows their maturity? Well, maybe it does but that’s it. In marriage, there is no maturity except you are able to be with that person till you die. If you guys separate (not because the man is an infidel or one of you committed adultery and also in the face of domestic violences), then you both were never mature.

A prenuptial agreement will only make sense to me if only one partner was to make the decision for the other person and not both of us talking about it. And for any person to do this, it means they truly love their partners just as they love themselves. So, the truth is, love is more than enough. Because that is you also saying that God is enough since God is Love. And don’t forget, marriage was not man’s design, it is God’s design.

But I must commend how you pointed out your opinion, it makes so much sense if marriage was man’s design but since it’s not, that’s why I had to say so much.

Indeed, all of these things happen due to the fact that there has been a lot of casualties but that shouldn’t stop us from sticking to the designer’s manual or else we will just keep getting it wrong.
