Deal Breaker: Make it or Break it

You have to decide what you want in life, and what is worth not having.

People forget "their list" once they find this person "The One."  People need to keep in mind what they want, so that they don't find themselves losing their greatest goals in life later on.

Is Children on your "Want" or "Don't Want" List?

Is a House on that list?

Is Education on that list?

What else can be deal makers or breakers are things like: faith, background, anger issues or management, children and how many, lifestyle, finances (the big #1 reason people get divorced), and quality time with each other.

I'm not saying all these need to be hashed out on your first, second or third date, but you need to pay attention to these before you say "yes" to that engagement ring.

If you don't want children, and your partner does, that could be a huge ordeal to address later on, and they may feel deceived if they don't get that part of their legacy.

Pay attention to your goals, their goals and what works in the relationship.
