For those of you who have never gotten married before, there is this test you have to take. It's not really a pass/fail kind of thing. More like a "Here's what you have to work on."
But the questions are ridiculous. Things like "I am shit and can't do anything." Okay, that's not what it says, but some of them seem to want to find out if you're depressed. Very odd.
It also asks about your family background and knowing where you will be financially once married. As Eli said "Poor, but not dirt poor."
The family background part was pretty interesting. I never really thought before how different Eli and I were raised. Eli is second of eight kids that he grew up with (he has a half-brother who lives with his dad). His house was always filled with activities (ask him about playing drug wars as a kid). I on the other hand am two of two and spent most of my teen years as an only child because my sister is four years older than me. She was in college my entire high school career.
Which means I'm selfish and Eli's used to giving in! Ha! Actually I think there may be an ounce of truth in that, isn't that terrible?
I'm anxious to see what the results are. My guess is that we'll score high on spending time together, but will likely need to talk about finances and raising kids. I'll let you know!
Eli's scared that it's going to show that we aren't compatible or something. I'm worried what the pastor is going to say about the spirituality scores. Eli and I are on the same page, but in our belief that organized religion isn't for us.
In other news we're going dress shopping this weekend! I'm pretty excited about that :)
