Just a thought...depending on how they're written, isn't is possible that a prenup might also be a strong deterrent to a divorce, depending on the circumstances?

I too hate the idea of prenups, and would prefer things like wills, revocable living trusts, or what-have-you.

However, as one who got married (after 3 solid years with the person) with a THIS IS IT FOREVER, and WHAT'S MINE IS YOURS FOREVER attitude, I can say that unforeseeable, unimagineable injuries can happen that might make a prior agreement better than struggling through the legal system.

That said, I don't know what I would do next time around. I am a different person after my experience. Probably avoid the next time around!
