30 Questions to Ask Before Getting Married

  • Do you have trust issues and insecurities?
  • How will we make decisions together?
  • What is your love language?
  • If we get stuck in our marriage, are you willing to seek outside help with a counselor?
  • How much alone time do you need?

Secondly, when should you start premarital counseling? Most couples think they should start pre-marital counselling two or three weeks to their marriage.

You should start going for therapy sessions as soon as you are sure of your stand in the relationship.

How do you know you're ready for marriage?

Your relationship is deep.
In the beginning, you and your partner flirted, went out a lot, stayed in bed a lot…But if you're getting married, you need to have a deep relationship. Deeper than just having fun all the time, going out every night, being carefree. You need to be able to tackle tough issues together.
