Barbara Honey, a counselor at ‘Relate,’ the UK’s leading relationship support provider, says that one of the most common problems is that couples do not communicate enough about vital issues before getting married or immediately afterward. These matters can range from how they’ll approach mutual finances to whether they want kids.

“We’d suggest having these conversations reasonably early on and then revisiting them later, as people’s feelings often change,” Barbara emphasized the importance of freely and regularly communicating with your partner about everything.
“In my experience, a good way of knowing you are ready is if you feel that you want to spend the rest of your life with someone. Of course, you may want to spend the rest of your life with somebody but not get married,” she said.
Barbara explained that if you’re having “a lot of doubts,” it’s best not to rush into anything. “Think about whether you can be yourself around them, whether you have shared values and interests, enjoy each other’s company, and how you work as a team to resolve arguments. Think about it rationally with your head, but also listen to your gut and whether it feels ‘right.’”

“Another thing that bonds you is shared experiences and memories that you can look back on together. Familiarity doesn’t always breed contempt!” Barbara advised couples to spend more time doing activities with their partners. In her opinion, routine doesn’t always lead to boredom.
That sounds like the kitten adopter who acted without consulting their partner, despite the fear of cats.
