Family pressuring me to get a prenup

Why is the pressure? Is it a financial logistic?

I understand where you are coming from. My FH family has been adamant about him getting one because he has a good job in an elevator construction union. His mother has mentioned it several times, even though she NEVER signed one. I calmly say, "FH and I have already discussed this, and don't feel the need to discuss our personal financial matters with others. Thank you for your concern though." Or I would pull the people aside who are doing it and calmly tell them that "I understand what you are saying, but I would appreciate it if you would stop bringing up the subject of a prenup." ; however, I am signing one for my FH and he will for me since it matters that much to him (even though I think the mother is behind it).

I think it depends on why they are wanting you to have a prenup. Are there family assets that they are wanting to make sure are protected?

I honestly believe prenups are a personal decision between the couple. If anyone brings it up again, I would kindly let them know you and your future spouse will make that decision together and leave it at that

That is a conversation that the family should stay out of. It is a choice and conversation topic between you and FH, period!

What are their reasons? If it’s something like a trust or inheritance that would never be considered marital property and a prenup isn’t necessary. If you have significant assets on your own they might just be wanting you to protect yourself.

Financial things I usually recommend family staying out of, but if they're saying that because you're due for a big inheritance, your family has many assets, a trust set up, and such... it's worth it to consider. It may not be right for you, but looking into it is smart.

It's one thing if your family wants to protect you financially, it's another if they just don't like you fiance...
