Ask her what was the reason for him or her to take this decision. This question may sound funny but still is a relevant question. You can share your reasons for making the decision. Ask, if it is because of the love he or she has for you or is it about the compulsion of parents, or about the age factor. You can also ask him/her, if he/she feels lonely without a partner.

Most people believe that it is unfair to talk about financial things before marriage, but it is very important to discuss about the financial priorities and spending habits of your potential mate. This discussion helps to reveal more about each other. Ask your ‘would-be’ spouse, if he/she is the one who believes in saving for the future. Sometimes, she/he may be a shopaholic who can almost clean up your bank balance. So ask financial questions to him/her before you step into marriage, which is believed to be a bond for the whole life.

 

If both of you belong to different religion or belief system, you have to talk about it. This will help you to understand your partner better. Be honest and open, about religious beliefs and levels of involvement. You can also ask about their political views and opinion on cultural changes.

You must ask your partner a few important questions on children such as ‘if she or he wants to have children or not? ‘. If having children is an integral part of your future life plan, then your partner is also supposed to feel the same way. You shouldn’t give up your wishes for your partner. If you never asked these questions before marriage, you may face problems in the future life, if your partner is not comfortable with your ideas about the family.

 

This question can tell you a lot about the individual, whom you are planning to marry. Talk about the history of your family, and its value system.

It helps to build better bond between you and your partner. If your family is against your marriage, you must take firm decisions and promises to make a sound family life. It is better to be in tune with both families for the sake of your next generation.
