9. Your Financial Habits
You can usually hide the fact that you’re behind in your rent or didn’t pay the cable bill when you live alone; but once you share expenses with someone else, that’ll be a different story. If he’s more financially responsible than you are, he’ll quickly figure out that all those 800 numbers on the caller ID are not your best girlfriends calling to check up on you, but rather bill collectors looking for their dough. Conversely, if you’re better at handling money than he is, you may suggest that you create a joint bank account in which you will be responsible for paying the household bills. Make sure you have a serious conversation about finances, debt, savings and sticking to a realistic budget.
