Talk about it…: Ask your partner questions…you won’t know unless you ask. Talk about sex; what did they learn about sex growing up, what do they find sexy now, and how do they feel about their own body? Talk about their parents relationship and other relationships they observed growing up, how do they want your marriage to be the same or different? Also, how do they mange their finances on a daily basis, how do they feel about debt? There are many other great questions to ask and many other topics that need to be discussed to prepare for married life. A pre-marital group or counseling is a great way to cover many of those topics and topics many couples do not think to talk about.

Part 4 in the series tomorrow.
