Things To Talk About B4 Getting Married

it's so exciting! There's the proposal, the ring and, of course, all the planning for the big day                                                       getting married isn't really about the wedding day -- it's about the quality of the marriage that follows. So how do you get started on the right foot?
Here are But a few Most important issues couples need to discuss b4 getting hitched.. and are Listed below

1. Decision-making model
Marriage is about compromise, meaning the art of negotiation is an essential skill. "Your decision-making model is vital because it indicates how egalitarian your relationship is,""Make sure your partner agrees with you about how an ideal relationship should work. Sharing important decisions and deciding together who should decide what takes strong listening, negotiating and problem-solving skills. You may not be perfect at it, but you need to know what you're working toward."

2. Chore and task-sharing
Do you plan to take care of the laundry, while your man takes responsibility for outdoor tasks like mowing the lawn? Don't just assume you know how these responsibilities will be divvied up. Talk about them. "Roles in relationships have been changing for the past few decades, and gender roles differ from one family to another,"Talking about it before marriage can give you a foundation on which to build later discussions if and when you find you aren't happy with the status quo."

3. Children
Do you both want children? If so, how many? And once you've got your little brood, how do you intend to raise them? While you might assume that children are an obvious part of a marriage, your partner may feel differently. "Most couples talk about how many children they'd like to have and when,"How you think children should be reared can be discussed over time as you see various families in action."

4. Religion and values
It's likely that you're marrying a person who mirrors your views on life and subscribes to the same moral code as you. But, religion and values are important to discuss because people often take these issues much more seriously after marriage than before, and extremely seriously once they have children. "You and your partner may both feel differently after you have children but at least you will have a foundation on which to build your later discussions, "You and your partner can't hold each other to what you said before if it no longer fits. But you can continue the discussion. Be flexible."

Sex
Sex shouldn't be a topic that you can't discuss freely and frankly with your spouse. Be open, honest and always ready to communicate on this subject. "Watch for a respectful, sharing and flexible attitude about sex,"Make sure the two of you can talk about sex comfortably, because sex that's never talked about can easily become unsatisfying and unsuited to one or both of you."
