Top Twelve Questions Before Marriage

1. What do you think makes a great marriage, what are your beliefs about marriage and what do you expect from marriage?

Talking though your expectation before marriage gives you the opportunity to make an informed decision. It allows you to find a workable compromise or to discover deal breakers before the deal is done.

At this point it is essential that you be honest with each other. There is no point in pretending to agree. This will just bring you a lot of heart ache in the future. This is a valuable question. Take time to carefully explore your own feelings and expectations; discover your beliefs about marriage and then share with your partner.

The more clear and up front you are about what you want and expect from marriage, the greater your chances of creating the kind of marriage that will feel good to you.
