15 Questions to ask before taking the plunge
Once again the NYTimes is doing all the hardwork for me, serving up 15 questions whose answers they feel should be bandied about between you and your honey before taking that big step forward:
1) Have we discussed whether or not to have children, and if the answer is yes, who is going to be the primary care giver?
2) Do we have a clear idea of each other’s financial obligations and goals, and do our ideas about spending and saving mesh?
3) Have we discussed our expectations for how the household will be maintained, and are we in agreement on who will manage the chores?
4) Have we fully disclosed our health histories, both physical and mental?
When you hit #12, consider how long they courtesy-pause before answering; you may then have a little insight into whether he/she is truly The One.
