Can you tell in advance how a marriage will work out?

It’s possible. It’s also prob- able ‘that even knowing that all the elements of failure are present, a couple will still go ahead, their faith unshaken in the saying that love conquers

But marriage counselors feel that facing possible differences before the wedding gives a couple a better chance of avoid- ing later conflict.

Some counselors work with a marriage prediction chart for prospectiwe partners. These are interpreted on the principle that the more a couple has in common, the greater chances of a happy marriage.

There is another school f thought that a man and wo- man with wide variations in

back ground, interests and abil-, this particular of what he can do for you? Or) because you love him as he is/ different,

ities still can make a go of mar- riage if one provides what the other lacks.

In either case, it is knowing

| what to expect and willingness

to solve the problem — if neces- sary by seeking professional help — that spells the differ- ence between a good and bad relationship.

Keeping this in mind, here are some questions to ask your- self about choosing a prospec- tive partner, and on being a good one yourself:

1, Why do you want to marry: Just to get married? To get

| away from home? Or do you , |

feel a need to share love § and companionship and to have a home and family?

2. Why do you want to marry

For example, tomato slices, cucumber slices, lettuce, tage and chive cheese are lined up on a platter, Italian, French and Russian dressing made available in small cruets of | pitchers, and the diner helps |
