4. Are we on the same page regarding important topics such as finances, career goals, family planning, and lifestyle choices?
5. Have we openly discussed our past relationships and any potential baggage that may impact our future together?

Take the time to think, talk, and build a relationship that fulfills and offers enjoyment to you both.
