Somebody has a LOT of time on their hands. I think if I had been subjected to this before marrying I would have been a stone-cold bachelor...

I don't even want to read it. LOL.

It's possible we may actually ask hundreds of questions during the time leading up to marriage.

If it isn't, it should be!

And yes, I think we probably ask at least that many questions before getting married. In my case, it was only about 15 questions that I was asked - but they were repeated 50 times each.

My eyes glazed over when I saw the list! I scanned it fairly quickly but I would say that more than 3/4 of the questions are very important to have answered. A lot of couples do NOT discuss important issues enough and seem to assume that their partner will acquiesce or compromise when need be. Oh, and that looove conquers all.

The question list is dumb. You find these things out over the course of time in getting to know a person. Maybe it is useful for a person having an arranged marriage. LOL
