I think religion is of extreme importance. Not only what donominaton you are but what do you practice. For instance, do you go to church regularly,do you believe in praying together as a family, and do you read the bible. I think that is a fundamental conversation that should take place. I know for me, I do not wish to be unequally yoked with a potential mate so that conversation would have to take place pretty early on.
Where do you see yourself in 5 or 10 years? I know this sounds like something you would hear in a job interview but its important nonetheess. What if has no substantial goals, what if he doesn't expect to be married and you do, the list could go on and on.
The discussion of fundamental morals and values should also occur. Without some sort of cohesion in this aspect the relationship can't possibly last long.
I couldn't possibly see myself compromising on these issues. They are too important for me to do without. I do however feel that compromising is indicative of a healthy loving relationship. I think we should compromise on things like how many kids to have, where we should live, mini van or corvette. Fundamental issues are simply off limits
