I think it’s fair if I keep any property in my country (which I already have) and she can keep any property we buy in Cambodia in the future (which we plan to do). We have absolutely no intention of ever getting a divorce but no harm in planning for the worst. No different than getting insurance really. You hope you never need it but it’s there if you ever do.
It’s probably fair, it’s not ‘romantic’. Whatever that is. It’s not an unreasonable precaution, IMHO. I’ve no idea how I would broach the subject

You can be sure once her family finds out how much you're worth she'll be after at least half if not all, either that or ostracized from the family, the thought of getting alot of money does strange things to people.

Just what I thought, but I didn't want to steal your line! :D
I dont think it is a bad way to "try" to sort out some "things" in the event that the marriage dont work. If you cant discuss such "unsexy" details with your partner you should not get married at all.

My gf and I are getting married soon and I just want a prenup to keep my house in case of any issues down the road. Appreciate any advice if you’ve got a prenup in Phnom Penh before.

Thank you.
Not a reply but another question since it is IMPOSSIBLE TO POST A new question i had to do it this way. Is it or is it not required for a usa person to have travel covid insurance or not as last year at some time there was a post on internet, not this website nor forum , titled Cambodia is no longer requiring travel insurance
Also if anyone knows how in the hell to post a new question please explain !
You put a question mark at the end.

You're welcome.

The wedding registry had "His" and "Hers" suggestions.

Your point isn’t lost, but I think there may have been a few convenient marriages over time, which were planned to have a finite life. Hence all the bloody hoops to go through with immigration, etc.

My gf and I have talked about this and she’s happy to not go after my house and I’m happy with her having half the rest (obviously only in a worst case scenario). Both of us are happy and marrying for love so a prenup is just logical and not offensive. Prenups made with a level head are always better than trying to sort it out if you end up drifting apart.
I think you will find a thesaurus categorises "love-struck" as an antonym to "level-headed," and "googoogaga" an antonym to "logical," and as "she loves me for me," is to "on earth," "walk," to "run." Truly" to :whistler:

Just throwing in some best-man joshin'. I am truly jealous I am not in the same place. All the best, may you grow old together.
