A woman who had been divorced for many years had asked, "What should I have known about my ex-husband before I married him?" The person responded, "Focus on the two secrets to a person's character."
#1 How hard is a person willing to work to better who they are? How far are they willing to go to enhance the relationships in their own life?
#2 How does the person respond when they don't get their way? This one is the ice breaker or the ice maker. You will have many disagreements. Do they disagree appropriately? Do they have feeling based conversations, or commitment based conversations? Do they spend more time making you responsible for their poor reactions or feelings? Or is their commitment to resolve and evolve.
"Choose your words carefully. For one day you may have to eat them."
