What kind of setting? Date.... Family Setting.... Alone, with Family, with Friends? Too many variables here.

Likes, Dislikes, Movies, Fav Food..see if he is a intro or extro.. physical or couch potato....if you are going to spend 8 to 15 hrs everyday with that person, get a feel how it would be like. Also observe more speak less. Looks frankly speaking, stop mattering after a time. Get a feel about his/her thoughts about staying with family or away. As a female, ask him a trick question in a roundabout way, what's his reaction if you have to help your family by staying in their proximity or financially post marriage, judge what his reaction would be if a skeleton were out tumble out of your past 3 months into marriage, 3 years into marriage..... personal insight...we knew each other for 5 years total...in between broke up for 2 years...got together again...damnit it's a journey....play yourself.... don't get tense.... expect that fellow to be equall dilemma....there is no ready playbook here ..,

So Arrange Marriage! That's actually a great solution from older times for successful marriages, so Congratulations in advance!! But yes, do talk priorities. Do they want to work or are they flexible enough to an extent. Would they be comfortable living in a nuclear family/with parents/or do they wanna live alone elsewhere. Education. Chores. And family planning goals if any, like no kids for atleast XYZ years. Well, do try to be frank and share your thoughts.
