If you’re wondering whether you should pop “the question”, its crucial to step back and reassess your relationship. By taking a look at the following questions, you can get a sense of how compatible you and your partner are:

Budgeting – Do you agree on how its spent? Do you both think the same in terms of savings?

Chores – Between your partner and you, how are chores allocated?

Sleep Schedules – Do you guys have a similar sleep schedule? Does one of you tend to sleep alot later or wake up alot earlier?

Foods – When it comes to dining, do both of you eat the same foods? If you are not a vegetarian, but your partner is, this might be a source of conflict, specifically on beliefs and what to eat for dinner. It may seem minuscule at first, but its the type of thing that can get on each others nerves

Interests – Do you and your partner share the same hobbies? Does one like to stay at home while the other is a tad more adventurous?

Friendship – Do you see your partner as your best friend? Do you feel like you can talk to them about anything?  If you are going to share your life together, you will want to be on the same page. For example, maybe you both value your careers, or family may be more heavily weighted.

Beliefs – Do you both share the same political beliefs?

Sexuality –  When it comes to sexual activity, does your partner and you like having the same amount and variety?

At the beginning of a relationship, issues like these aren’t a big deal, but differences can become the cause of tension between you two later on. Asking types of questions like these are supposed to encourage compromise while preventing conflict when its possible. Premarriage counseling might be necessary if you and your partner can’t reach a compromise.
