Questions: Ask Your Partner Before Getting Married
Deciding to get married will be one of the most important decisions of your life. That is why it’s so important, to make sure you get married to the right person. I’ve dedicated most of my professional life to developing this website, to make sure single hopefuls find their perfect companion. This is by the means perfect for such a person who is looking for a long-term and serious relationship.
Here are a few practical questions you should ask your partner before deciding to get married.
RELIGION
Even though this is a touchy subject matter. Both of you must be on the same wavelength when it comes to religion. Making sure that you have the same beliefs is important for the future, especially when it comes to religious holidays and ceremonies.
If you don’t have the same religion, then you should make sure that you will be able to combine both or accept the other’s beliefs.
FAMILY
Getting married includes adopting a lot of new family members. You should ask questions about the other person’s relationship with their family. If you are keen on big family gatherings your spouse should be too.
FINANCES
Another touchy subject matter, but extremely important to discuss. Does your potential spouse have any debt? How do they save and do they have any savings plans? It’s vital that you make sure you won’t adopt your spouse’s debt and if you do, that you don’t mind helping them pay off a few loans.
You are planning towards the future, so your finances should be in order.
LOCATION
If you don’t live in the same city or town, and you decide to get married. One of you should relocate. Talk about which city is your favorite and decide together where you want to base yourselves.
CHILDREN
Some singles want to start a family immediately. Do you? Make sure that both of you want children at the same time, or would rather wait a little bit longer.
FUTURE PLANS
Where do you see yourself in the future? Having the same outlook on life and wanting the same things, are important to ensure your future success. Talk about where you want to be in 5 years and make sure those plans will be able to combine.
MORAL VALUES
Moral values are the things that mold us into the people we are. Do you and your potential spouse share the same moral values? Ask them about their views on crime, the death penalty and giving to the poor. Does it correlate with your views? If so, you might just found your match.
