Marriage is a big decision.
It's a commitment that should not be taken
lightly.
There are many things to consider before getting
married.
3
Your values and beliefs

• It's important to be on the same page with your
  partner about your values and beliefs.
• This includes things like religion, politics, and
  finances.
• If you have different values, it can be difficult
  to make decisions together.
• Couple counseling can help you explore your
  values and beliefs and find common ground.

4
Your communication style.

• How do you communicate with your partner?
• Are you able to express your feelings in a
  healthy way?
• Are you able to listen to your partner's feelings
  without getting defensive?
• If you have different communication styles, it
  can be difficult to resolve conflict.

5
Your financial situation

• How do you handle money?
• Are you both on the same page about your
  financial goals?
• Are you both willing to work together to manage
  your finances?
• If you have different financial habits, it can be
  difficult to stay on the same financial track.

6
Your expectations for marriage

• What do you expect from marriage?
• Do you have the same expectations for your roles
  as husband and wife?
• If you have different expectations, it can lead
  to disappointment and conflict.
• Couple counseling can help you clarify your
  expectations for marriage and learn how to
  communicate them to your partner.

7
Your willingness to compromise

• Marriage is all about compromise.
• Are you willing to put your partner's needs ahead
  of your own sometimes?
• Are you willing to change your mind when you're
  wrong?
• If you're not willing to compromise, it can be
  difficult to have a successful marriage.
