susanl Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 As you all know I have been posting here on a couple of issues with boyfriend that I have been seeing for over a year. I am divorced two grown kids, he is divorced two teenagers. We have bought a house that he and his children are living in until my youngest son graduates and goes to college this summer. Now for the question--- How many of you out there have remarried and did you do a prenup?? If so what did you find that was important to put in this document? If I am a non working mom and going to take care of his kids so he can earn a living how does this affect the marriage financially (right now I am living off my assests from the divorce and possibly going to get a part time job)? Also when I sell my house that I am living in now ---what happens to those assets? Is everybody usually a little gun shy about giving up there independence especially on the remarriage? I love this man dearly and want to spend the rest of my life with him --yet when we talk about getting married he gets cold feet and changes the subject--although I know he wants to get married---he has told me over and over again. Oh well any help, encouragment or just some fun advice would be helpful--thanks. Link to post Share on other sites

If so what did you find that was important to put in this document? Much depends on your state of residence. Here in Wisconsin, the marital property laws describe community property in extensive detail, & I am not aware of any case where a pre-nup overruled the law. Some of the issues addressed include titling of property, maintenance of assets, acts of misconduct (i.e. adultery). You would be best advised to consult with an attorney concerning your specific situation. Link to post Share on other sites
