Are you planning to propose to the special lady in your life? Good for you man. However, you still have some homework to do. You'd hate it if you marry your girlfriend only to realise that there's a lot about her that you actually don't know or understand.
Here are three questions to ask her before proposing to her.
1. Can we live together for sometime prior to marriage?
You might be one who believes that the idea of moving in together before marriage is wrong, but you wouldn't want to marry someone you don't know much about. Living together with her for sometime before marriage gives you some day-to-day experience of living with your potential spouse. It's terribly wrong to marry someone without having to assess the kind of person they are. You can easily get to know her better by moving in together.
Talking of children, they are the products of marriage and some argue they are the glue that bind a couple together. Now, people have different ideas about kids. As a man, your time of expecting kids could be so different from that of your girlfriend. Therefore, to be on the same page, it is advised that you ask her about her appropriate time of having kids so that you don't disagree once you get married.
3. What is your financial situation?
You should be aware of your girlfriend's financial situation before you propose to her. No matter how uncomfortable this question might be, it should be on your list. You need to know about each other's debts and line of credits. This discussion is important because arguments about finances can lead to a breakup.
