Questions To Ask A New Partner Before Marriage

Love and marriage are two inseparable components of life. But everyone has secrets and no matter how much you know a person, they will always have secrets that you do not know about till it’s too late! You would also be amazed to know the secrets of your partner which were otherwise not disclosed prior to the marriage.

As a result, most people advise a gap between the engagement and marriage so that partners can know each other really we. The time gap before marriage and the meetings are actually meant to unveil these hidden truths and know about each other as much as you can. In this spree of knowing your would-be partner, there are some questions which need to be addressed before marriage.

His relationship with his family is also important. Ask about his relationships and proximity with his friends, mother, father and all. This will help you analyze how close he is in his personal and family relations and how would it affect your relation with him.

First things first, ask about his views and opinions about life and his goals in life. If your goal matches with his, you can share a better understanding. Similar to this point, ask whether he attaches importance to career or family. This will allow you to support your partner’s energy and choices.

You will have to ask your partner about his ideas of marriage. Please remember that you may not want to start a family fast but your fiancée may be looking forward to a child as soon as possible. This disproportion in future planning can seriously affect your married life too.

Whether your new partner likes kids and children also counts a lot since it will show his desire to welcome a family as soon as possible after marriage and what values he has as regarding family.

Ask if he is religiously focused and attaches more importance to devotion and spiritual content. Then clarify what are his political and social affiliations as you need to know before hand. You cannot live your life with a person who has drastically opposite viewpoints; believe me that does not work at all no matter how much you love each other!

Ask about his impulses, his thoughts and drive towards sex life too. This will help you know your partner better. It might sound silly but men and women have dramatically opposite ideas towards sex that will change even more after marriage.

Talk about his finances and expenses because you would never like to be associated with a person who is under a debt. He might be a spendthrift or too miserly. Do you want a joint account or a shared account and how will the finances be shared?

Relationships are not all about one-sided awareness. Ask your partner what qualities he wishes to be present in his partner too. This is so that you can compare his words with your own capabilities, features and qualities. And if you expect him to change…then so should you too!

In fact, many relationships have broken down at this simple question. These questions will definitely help out in establishing a strong foundation for a new relation.
