My only question is how to breach the subject of a prenup to your SigOther without having a plate of fettucine alfredo smeared on your face? Or, even worse (far worse), heart-wrenching sobs accompanied by 'why don't you trust me!'

Start asking her for money... Before long, if she doesn't dump you, she'll demand one!

Whenever I've lent money to a girlfriend, she doesn't get a dime unless she signs an IOU.

And if she doesn't like it, she can walk and do her bawling somewhere else.

And I've always gotten my money back.

And in the case pf marriage, I'd definitely have the lawyers lined up before I'd ever get married.

Further, I would never let anyone know exactly how well off I am. It should be enough for them to know I do OK.

You would not discuss such a serious subject over dinner. I would not even breach the subject until the man had asked me to marry him and I wanted to marry him.

Don't bring it up; just make sure you trust the SigOther completely before marrying him/her.

Get it out of the way on the first date, before there is any emotional investment. If it doesn't fly then you've only wasted one evening.
