VDay: All that hype and denial
Today is Valentines day.

What couples fail to ask before getting married?
I was reading the New York Times website when I stumbled upon this interesting articles about the questions couple should ask before getting married.
1) Have we discussed whether or not to have children, and if the answer is yes, who is going to be the primary care giver?
2) Do we have a clear idea of each other’s financial obligations and goals, and do our ideas about spending and saving mesh?
3) Have we discussed our expectations for how the household will be maintained, and are we in agreement on who will manage the chores?
4) Have we fully disclosed our health histories, both physical and mental?
5) Is my partner affectionate to the degree that I expect?

FYI, it’s just me and my sister’s family here in the Philippines for most of the year. Papa works in Bahrain and Mama lives there with him. And it’s been like this for the past 8 years. There are advantages and disadvantages, of course, but I’ll save that for another post.
