If you are ready to walk down the aisle. Have you asked yourself some very important questions about your partner? The following areas are vital if you want to have lasting relationship.
- Do you have common life goals?
- Do you make each other laugh?
- Are you financial matches? Are your attitudes towards money in sync?
- Do you understand how to be intimate with each other?
- Can you effectively communicate during conflict?
- Do you feel supported (mentally, emotionally, and spiritually)?
- Do you have a common religious or spiritual foundation/network?
- How do you want to raise children? Will you be balanced in the time and energy spent
- What do you value? (material needs, comfort, or personal growth)
These are just a few of the things you should consider before saying I DO. It is great to be in love, but that will only take you so far. If you plan on spending a lifetime with someone, then take it seriously and have a real talk. One based on honesty, mutual respect, love, and the willingness to be great friends if you find some deal breakers.
