What should you know about your boyfriend before getting married?

Answer 1

I always think of practical matters, like credit rating, outstanding bills that should be paid, agreements about whether and when you want children. An interesting book is by Susan Piver, called "The Hard Questions," which has a list of essential questions. You could also go to a class on communication to learn about styles of talking and listening (Talking and Listening Together by Sherod Miller). Make sure he is not at all verbally or physically abusive and that he treats you with kindness and respect, always.
