More than 50% of marriages end up in divorce, and that number only continues to rise. As such, more couples than ever before are signing prenuptial agreements before they tie the knot, which begs the question: Is love dead?

If true love exists between two people, the thought of a prenup may seem asinine, since there is no chance their relationship will ever split apart.


Flora Gill says in the Daily Mail, however, that signing a prenup isn't unromantic, it's practical. She likens it to always wearing a seatbelt while in the car. She writes, "There's nothing you can say about the skill of a driver or the robustness of the car that won't still have me buckling up just in case."

Gill concludes, "Isn't it better to discuss how you would go about splitting up from a position of love, rather than potentially doing it later from a place of hate?"
