Making more money than my fiance.

I currently earn more than my fiance by a pretty significant margin. He was totally fine with it when we were just dating, but now that he put a ring on it, he's being really insecure (especially when the wedding budget comes up!). My parents also want me to get a pre-nup but given how he's already acting, I really don't even want to go there. Anyone have advice on how to deal with this?

I was literally just reading this: https://www.refinery29.com/en-ca/what-its-like-being-the-female-breadwinner If he's acting like that, talk to him about why he's feeling that way. It's not fair that he's putting that on you, so work together to help him figure out what's going on. In the meantime your parents have a point, exactly because he is acting this way. If you don't want a prenup then this is the time to figure out if you can work through this, not when you get married. Really take a look at this so you're not kicking yourself later, you're both worth that much.
