10 Tips of Quality Dating
Quality dating can’t happen when you’re naked between bedsheets. Emotions compromise logic. Keep s*x out of dating and talk about…
1. How you will support each other’s dreams, aspirations and career growth.
2. Your backgrounds, traumas, fears, addictions and struggles.
3. S*x, romance, intimacy, faithfulness, HIV testing and extramarital affairs.
4. Emotional intelligence – especially how to manage anger and excitement.
5. Effective communication and resolving conflicts in your relationship.
6. Money – buying habits, financial priorities, savings, investments and accountability.
7. Your interests, hobbies and usage of gadgets and social media.
8. Your parents and siblings and how you will relate with them after marriage.
9. Your future children – faith, education, role-modelling and quality time with them.
10. Your spiritual lives – beliefs, church, missions, giving and family prayer time.
Abstaining from pre-marital s*x is the surest test that someone wants a life-long relationship. And go for premarital counseling together. Only fools reject guidance. Fools think that they know everything.
