7 Questions to ask before you say, “I do.”

1. Can I be myself around this person?

If you feel pressure to be someone else around your fiancee, that’s a HUGE warning sign. A great spouse will bring out the best in you, but never try to change who you are.

2. Does this person strengthen my faith and character?

Your husband or wife will have a tremendous influence on you for your entire lifetime. He/She should be someone who encourages and strengthens your faith and your character and NEVER tempts or pressures you to compromise your values.

3. Do the people who love me most think we’re a good match?

Listen to those who love you. If your parents, siblings and/or close friends aren’t thrilled with the match, there’s a very high likelihood it’s because it’s a bad match! Those people want what’s best for you, so ask their honest opinion.

4. Do I want my kids to grow up to be like this person?

Would you be proud to have sons or daughters grow up to be like your fiancee? If not, then breakup! Your future kids won’t just look like this person, they’ll probably BE like this person.
