        I recently broke off an engagement because the guy who initially agreed that we both would reside in a particular city after marriage (he himself suggested the city because he is working there) suddenly changed his mind when the wedding day was near, and said that we both have to shift to and settle in his native village, where my career options would be extremely limited. I have a good academic profile and would want to live in a place where I could flourish career wise and would be able to lead a decent life with facilities and opportunities. His native village doesn’t have basic developments and I’m worried that my future children won’t get good education there. I had talked all of this in detail with him on the first day we met. He too agreed that we will live in the particular city where he is currently working. All of a sudden he wants to quit his job, start a business in his native village and want me to move there and work there. So I broke off the engagement. But now he is coming back to me and saying, he likes me a lot and is ready to live in the city we agreed on earlier. But I don’t trust him anymore about this. If not in his case, in future, with anyone I will be getting married to, I want to make a legal agreement on the city of residence. Is it possible?also, is such an agreement enforceable in the court?

            Legal prenups and such agreements are not valid in India, have a general agreement and anyway even if you have an agreement, only way is divorce if there are disagreements.
            It’s not like you go to courts and still living with him.
