He’s About To Propose To His Girlfriend And After He Told Their Friends In Front Of Her That He Wants A Prenup, She Got Very Upset
A 26-year-old man has been with his 25-year-old girlfriend named Rachel for 2 years now.
Their relationship is becoming increasingly serious; they live with one another and have talked a lot about how their life will look like together.
He even went out and bought an engagement ring a few weeks ago, and he just asked Rachel’s dad for permission to propose (Rachel’s dad said yes).
He and Rachel are very close to a few of their friends, which includes friends from college, Rachel’s cousin and sister, and their partners.
He and Rachel hang out with their friends quite frequently, where they will watch football and do game nights.
Last Sunday, he and Rachel invited their friends to their place to grill and watch football. That afternoon, the topic of celebrity relationships came up.
“Rachel’s brother-in-law brought up that a lot of them have prenups which probably makes the divorces go a lot smoother,” he explained.
“Rachel then said “I would never sign a prenup, that would be so embarrassing”. I then said, “we’ll that’s unfortunate because I want one”. Everyone laughed along with Rachel, and I didn’t and gave sort of a look.”
“Rachel then asked if I was being serious and I said that I was. I could immediately tell she was upset, she asked why I never said anything before. I said because we weren’t engaged.”

Rachel did not take that well and she immediately got up and went to their guest bedroom. Rachel’s cousin and sister accused him of being a jerk and ran after her.
Rachel refused to come out of the bedroom until their friends left, and when she did come out, she announced that she was leaving and heading to her sister’s place.
“I’ve been reaching out for days and been getting a cold shoulder,” he said. “She won’t even have a conversation about a prenup.”
“I just don’t know what to do, I love this woman but a prenup is something I’ve always wanted and I’m sure I’ve mentioned it before to her.”
He did say that he and Rachel come from families that are financially similar and upper-middle class.
Rachel works as a teacher in a high school, and he works for the government. He makes a lot more than Rachel does, and his salary will continue to increase so that’s what’s worrying to him.
“It’s more about protecting myself in case anything happened, he concluded.
