To marry or not to marry!

Before I continue this entry. I'm gonna say sorry first to my friend for posting this story of yours here in my blog. But don't you worry, I'm not gonna mention your name. And if ever this entry will make you feel uncomfortable, just tell me to delete this and I'll be glad to delete this for you.

I'm not gonna make this entry very long. This friend of mine, arrived here in the USA just last week under the K1 visa. A day before her marriage, her fiance told her that he wants her to sign a pre-nup agreement. My friend was shocked when she heard about this coz before she came here, her fiance did not told her regarding this matter. So, they post-poned the wedding since, my friend need time to think about this thing. And now she is confused and asking for my advice. My friend is not into the assets of the guy. She is very willing to sign the pre-nup agreement eventhough she felt uncomfortable with it. But what she only wants is that, she don't want to get pregnant within six months or so in order for her to adjust the life here in the US but her fiance won't agree to it. Her fiance will send her to school, and the reason why she don't want to get pregnant at this moment coz it is very uncomfortable for her to go to school with a big tummy, you know.

People will say that there is nothing wrong having a pre-nup agreement and that it is not a big deal. Pre-nup is common here in the US. But common doesn't necessarily make anything right. What would you feel when your fiance ask you to sign a pre-nup? Without discussing the issue first? I know..that there are few filipinas, who's into a pre-nup agreement. They are open-minded filipinas for sure. I'm not saying that my friend is not an open-minded person but I know that she's hurting right now.

But anyway, what can you say about this guys? I am not in the right position to give her advice coz honestly, I really dunno what to say. My friend says that if her fiance is not willing to compromise, it might better for her to go back to Philippines.

- The guy wants a pre-nup agreement and the girl don't want to get pregnant in 6 months or so.

- The girl is willing to sign the pre-nup as long as her fiance allow her not to get pregnant for a few months only. But the guy is selfish and not willing to compromise.

To my friend, just be strong girl.

Aja! Aja!
