5 Things You Should Know About Your Partner Before Marrying Them by Nobody: 11:41am On Jun 21, 2015
1. How are they with money?


Money is often cited as one of the most common things couples fight about. And when you're married this doesn't go away. If anything it can get worse if your finances become entwined. It's important to know how your partner handles money and what their attitudes toward it are. It's worth talking about whether you want to combine your finances through joint bank accounts or by filing taxes as a couple. Will your debts also be married? Money can't buy you love — but it can mess it up.

N. B-make sure you don't marry a "magarizer" cheesy

2.How do they express anger?


Everyone gets angry and upset sometimes and all couples are bound to fight. So it helps to know how your partner reacts to being upset. Do they freak out and yell or sulk in silence? Knowing this will help ease tensions when things get heated, and it'll just give you a sense of how to gauge their mood and adjust accordingly.

N. B - Don't marry someone that beats you even in courtship undecided

3. Do they have any dreams or career ambitions that marriage might forestall?

For all its splendor, marriage sometimes means foreclosing on some of the goals or dreams you have. It's important to know what your partner doesn't want to give up on, whether it's traveling across Europe or going to graduate school, and how it's likely to affect your marriage.

4. What is their spiritual inclination?

As people get older, religion and spirituality often becomes more important to them. And as we all know, relgious differences can be a major source of conflict between anyone. But it doesn't have to be. You just need to have reasonable expectations and know what you're getting into. Are you comfortable with your partner being religious if you're not? Or, if you like to pray and they don't, how will that affect your life together?

5. How will you handle the division of labor?

Will one person work and the other stay home? Will you divide up household chores evenly? There's no right or wrong way. Just be clear about what each of you expects.

I agree bruh but everyone knows that every marraige must pass though some challenges at some point

But once you know those things about your partner , it will be easier to have a marraige that will be void of catasrophe and an eventual divorce
