What is the first thing you look at before marriage??

. Age
. Character
. Financial status
. Family background
. Education
. Beauty/ Handsomeness
. Other (specify)


[b]. Age - Not really important!! Except she has hit or is approaching puberty Menopause....

. Character - Very Important.. But hard to tell as people have the ability to not only pretend but change..

. Financial Status - Very unimportant.. Money is unstable.. A rich man today, might not still be rich tomorrow and vice versa for the poor.. I'll rather focus on the persons drive, work rate and vision.. Is he/she a go-getter..

. Family Background - Important in terms of health/genetics/hereditry wise.. Not for if he or she is from a wealthy background or other superficial shiit like that..

. Education - This is dependent.. Not everyone in the world is educated.. So it depends on what you want. Some people are not educated because of circumstance not because they were dumb..

. Beauty/Appearance - VERY VERY IMPORTANT!! This part is underplayed by many people and wrongly so.. In all relationships, the eyes are the first point of contact.. He/she must appeal to you physically.. This is super important..

. Sexually - For those who believe i 'NO SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE', this part is not for you.. However, I do believe that sexual compatibility is very important.. If your partner doesnt satify you sexually, you are very likely to cheat on him or her during marriage.. Especially if you have nymphomanic tendencies..

. Religion.. - Depending on the persons involved.. I dont consider this to be of any importance whatsoever as religion does not define a man.. However, many people do hold religion as very important and can be difficult to deal with especially if you are both of different religous affiliation..

. Dreams & Aspirations Very Important.. If you both have very opposite dreams for each other.. you shouldnt be together..

Financial Status

With a well balanced financial capabilities, you cannot imagine how loyal a woman will be to you...how caring she will be....how tolerant she can be. Money rules the "weaker sex"......and don't mind their age long phrase that "money is not everything".

1. Beauty: Eye go first chop. I will ask myself, "is she presentable?" "Can I proudly walk on the street with her?"

2. Character: Dis na the main thing. I can't just tolerate some characters. I love girls who are down-to-earth. Though I mostly meet the proud types nowadays.

Re: The First Thing You Look At Before Marriage? by pweeryambre: 1:00pm On Nov 06, 2012
Age; people usually over look dis but it so does matter. for me it comes first, as it helps determine ones stage in life at D moment..before they even talk abt relationship not marriage yet.
Followed by Character, financial status,physique and others.

Her faith...why?
if she is spiritual then her bad character will be under subjection.

Re: The First Thing You Look At Before Marriage? by deols(f): 2:16pm On Nov 06, 2012
I disagree that there is a first thing when it comes to marriage. if you are seeing someone for the first time, u'd be attracted to something first before the others. But with marriage a whole lot would be considered. In hierarchy, mine is as below.

religion
personality
looks
intelligence
finance
education
family
