Before You Pop the Question
Are you planning to get married? How exciting! If you’re making plans to marry soon, planning on getting married later on when you both feel the time is right, or even if you just want to dream ahead for that one special day, there are many questions that need to be asked before taking such a huge life step. This is one of the biggest life investments you can make, and you (and your spouse-to-be) will want to get it right.
If you do choose to marry, there are many questions you want
to ask yourself, along with questions you want to ask your beloved. Here are 60
questions to ask before getting married.
Questions for Yourself
1. Do you really want to be married and bound for life to
this person, no matter what life throws at you?
2. Do they have your back?
3. Are they generous with their money and time?
4. Are they genuinely attentive to and willing to meet your
sexual needs?
5. Are they dismissive of your concerns or do they really
listen to you?
6. Observe if their actions match their
words. Is what they do the same as what they say?
7. Is your significant other a taker, a giver, or do they
have a pretty good balance of give and take?
8. Are they faithful to you, both emotionally and
physically?
9. How does your person treat people who act in service
roles, such as food servers, store clerks, etc.?
10. How do they treat people who can’t do anything for them?
11. Do you trust them? Perhaps it seems absurd to ask at
this stage, but it is imperative you know the answer is an instant yes. If you
feel yourself hesitate, even a little bit, it’s time to put things on pause and
dig deeper. If they lie to you constantly, if you feel like you’re always
having to check and see what they’re up to, if they appear to be living a
double life, please do not be tempted to make excuse after excuse for them.
Face who they really are. Save yourself the agony of being tied to someone who may
end up tearing your heart out, destroying your finances, your very home, and
heaven forbid, the family you may create together.
12. Do they drink too much?
13. Do they do recreational drugs?
14. Do they have a porn addiction?
15. Do they gamble or are otherwise reckless and
irresponsible financially?
16. Do they have a bad temper?
17. Do they criticize you constantly?
18. Are they always trying to “fix” you?
19. Are you on a secret or even open mission to see if you
can change them?
20. Why do you want to change them?
21. Are you willing to accept them as-is? Growth, maturity, and willingness can help a person to change, but leopards tend to be quite attached to their spots, and very rarely will they change them.
Questions for You and Your Mate-to-Be
There are countless questions to ask. Some
questions are not easy to ask your beloved.
Some of these questions are tough. Sometimes people
are perfectionists and can run off a prospective partner with impossibly high
demands that they themselves couldn’t meet.
Find a happy medium by perusing these queries
and any others you may think of and take what best fits for you and your intended
life partner.

The Most Important Question
Of course, not everyone is cut out for, or even
wants to get married, so
probably the most important question to ask first is: “Is
marriage the best option?”
The reasons to not marry are endless, but
here are a few of them:
•Lots of people choose to commit to one
another without a legal piece of paper to bind them, for they believe only love
is the real bond.
•Some people might want to marry, but don’t
feel the traditional way works for them.
•Sometimes financial issues make it easier to
avoid marriage.
•Some people don’t want to be monogamous.
•Some folks worry that too many marriages end
in divorce.
•People may not want to have kids and
therefore feel marriage is unnecessary.
Just the Beginning
These questions are enough to get you off to
a good running start toward marriage and the rest of your life/lives. May all
your questions be answered happily and may you be blessed with a lifetime union
filled with bliss.
