When browsing internet I have found very interesting article. Maybe it sounds a bit like a jokie from first point of view but after reading it until the end I found it very interesting. Problem discovered in this article is global. Couples spend hours, days and months to know each other better before marriage but they are talking without pressure, mostly during free time and with smiles on their faces. But when they starting to live in real life conditions they relationships are not the same as they were before marriage. Just marriaged couples starting to find bad points in their ideal partner they did not notice during before marriage dates and evenings. So how you can test your date before marriage?
Ben Goldfarb is a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin advice following guidelines to test your soul mate under real life conditions. Full article is available on JPost but I will take most interesting tips from that article which I hold easy to test in most cases.
Showing up
Show up on time, but come as you are. Forget about showering and finding the perfect outfit. Go ahead and arrive after working out at the gym, running, or meeting with your parole officer. When married, we usually don't have the time to create our ideal state before getting together, so get used to it now.
Location
Real life isn't about sipping coffee and eating cinnamon rolls. Try the following option for your first date.
Meet at a carpenter's workshop. Build a bookshelf, a stereo cabinet or maybe some farming implements. Anyone can ingest food, but only a select few can construct something together without getting into a fight.
Conversation
Forget those meaningless discussions highlighting your good points. Instead, be brutally honest. For example, told her about your nasty habit of biting nails, or more specifically, biting other people's nails. If she didn't balk showed your picture taken immediately upon awakening in the morning.
Timing
Call your date 10 minutes before she has a deadline or 45 minutes after he has fallen asleep. Learn how they deal with pressure or exhaustion.
Analyze your personality change
Does she bring out your best, your worst, or perhaps your secret desire to open up a Viking restaurant? Is this transformed person you become in her presence the one with whom you want to spend the rest of your life?
These tips could be tested in real life without problems. Sure it's hard to expect building strong relationship if you will do all these things during the first date but if you will use some of these tips after 2-3 months to avoid problems after marriage.
