Timely post as just today I got engaged to my girlfriend. We will definitely go for a prenup, I want to avoid a 15 year long divorce battle like my parents had at all possible costs.

I have created a subreddit for people interested in discussing prenups: https://www.reddit.com/r/prenup

Interestingly enough, in my anecdotal evidence, couples who have a prenup don't divorce :)

Maybe the mere fact of having enough trust to do a prenup marks a more mature marriage, more likely to succeed in the longer term?

Hope so! My fiancee is definitely super mature, only 24 years old but had to support her family (while studying) after her father died at 17 years old. She's completely onboard with us deciding what is fair in what scenario rather than outsourcing it to some parliament and court system somewhere.

Congrats!

Has the subject of a prenup come up before? If not, don't assume that conversation will go smoothly...

It's a required condition for me. She knows and has known for a long time.
