Before You Say Yes — 40 Questions to Ask Him First (Free Fillable Guide)

In 1977 I said yes to a man I'd asked exactly two questions. Where are you from, and do you like this song. That was it.

Forty-eight years later, this is the list I wish I'd had.

What's inside

– 40 questions in four sections: Money · Family · Faith · The small things that become the big things

– Under every question, two boxes: His answer and My gut. The second one matters more.

– Notes from Marjorie and Winston where they couldn't help themselves

– A final page — What I learned — that tells you what you already know

How it works

It's a fillable PDF. Open it on your phone or laptop, tap a box, type. It saves. Do one section at a time — nobody ever fell in love over an interrogation.

Who it's for

You've had a few good dates and you're wondering if this is the one. Or you've been together a while and realised you've never asked. Or you just want to know what to ask before you say yes.

It's free. If it helps, there are three more guides from the same kitchen table: Same Flags, Different Trousers, The Conversation, and Parked or Moving?

— Marjorie & Winston Beckford. Married since 1978. Still arguing. Still here.
