1. MONEY!! What are your views on financial issues/goals? For example: do you both want to work? What are some financial issues that you have student loans/credit care debt/ poor credit score? Who decides where the money goes? If your partner had to relocate, would you move? Etc.

2. CHILDREN! Do you both want kids? And how many? If you couldn't have kids due to health issues, would you adopt, IVF, or surrogate? And by when do you want to have kids?

5. FAMILY and FRIENDS!!! Family and Friends are super important! Making sure that family or friends never comes between you two unless it's a serious matter.
