Getting married is a really serious business. This means that both of you are going to be each other’s driving force.
Technically, your spouse is someone you’re supposed to trust with your life and everything in it. This is why it is necessary to not brush the surface but go in thoroughly with some conversations.
Here are some 8 touchy conversations we suggest you have with your partner:
How Do You Resolve Conflict
Conflicts can be one of the major breaking points of a relationship. So if you’re planning on a forever chariot ride, it’s necessary to ask how best to resolve conflict and make a working plan towards achieving this. Make sure to come to a truce so it doesn’t seem like one party is selfish about their ways of resolving issues.
Money
As much as love matters, money matters too. Even though this is the most difficult question to ask, it is one of the most significant conversations to have. Issues like how to handle funds if your spouse is a big spender, how to save, how much comes from both sides should be discussed in details.
Children / No Children
It is better to ask rather than assume. There are cases of men who believed they could change their wife’s decision on children and vice-versa. If you would like to have children or not, the best time to discuss it is just before marriage. So that all doubts can be cleared.
Do They Have a Vision for the Future?
Do a little check on his/her plans for the future. In cases where your plans are conflicting, discuss possible ways you can work it out if it is something that can be overlooked
How You Relate With Family-in-Laws
Family can sometimes cause a rift between spouses. Discuss the ways your spouse will handle issues that concern family. So that you’re sure that in whatever case, family-in-law issues do not affect you.
Chores
As shocking as it may sound, chores can cause a lot of conflict between partners. It’s best to have a detailed discussion on this and have a scheduled plan if need be, especially in cases where you plan on having kids in the future.
