Life would be impossibly boring without romantic relationships. We fall in love and then get married to those we love.
However, real life of a married couple is different from that people have before they get married. After marriage most of us understand that there are some certain things that influence our personal relationships.
Before getting married, ask the following:
1. Is he ready to change diapers when you have kids?
It might sound strange, but there are couples who do not want to have children in the future. If you are one of such couples, then there is no use in discussing this topic. All you will need to discuss is the best birth-control method. But if you are planning on having kids, then discuss how many kids your partner would like to have and what role he will play as a parent.
2. Is he religious? How important is it for him to follow traditions?
How different are your views towards religion? People from different cultures and background may disagree. It’s very important to find out how serious this issue is for your partner. No one wants to argue about faith. The problem may become even more serious if you have children. You will then need to decide on religious education of your kids. Have a plan before creating a family.
