We developed The Couple Agreement to help make marriages happier, make long term relationships stronger, and to keep the romance of two people in love last longer, hopefully forever.
The Couple Agreement started in 1984 between two attorneys. One was a family law attorney (who became a family law judge in California) and one was a contract attorney. They consistently saw two people in love eventually fail in their relationship because of misconceptions and the buildup of resentments in their marriages or long term relationships.
Today in the English speaking Western world we live in a world of written contracts and agreements, written laws and statutes, written policies and procedures, written court cases and decisions, written guarantees on grocery items. Why do we need these? It is simple. We no longer live in villages where everyone knew their roles, and women were subservient to men. Today, in a serious relationship when people come from diverse backgrounds, the likelihood of misunderstandings increase. Two people of Chinese background and culture have a good chance. However, a woman of Japanese descent and a man of Scottish descent are going to have misunderstandings. A woman from the upper middle class and a man from the lower class are going to have misunderstandings. The Couple Prenup Program™ gives those relationships more than a chance. It guarantees their success. The Couple Prenup Program™ can reduce those misunderstandings through written agreements, negotiation and compromise. It is a living agreement in that it changes as the relationship matures and evolves.
