FOCCUS

was anyone else surprised by some of the questions asked? I think I laughed out loud at more than one of them - especially the one asking if we were currently having homosexual feelings!

St Pats in Bay Shore - I'm pretty sure I saw you there. I recognized you from your pic but didn't want to go up to you and seem like a stalker!

Ours was funny because we were sitting there talking through it like what?!?! some of those questions were insane! But we definitely saw that we've talked about everything on that except money things like who is responsible for what, so at least we saw what we needed to look at. But really with some of those questions?! Like are you afraid of your partner at times? really?!

As my priest put it, 'it's a test that's not really a test'. It's a scan tron with 155 questions for you to answer about your relationship, money, sex, children, etc. I have to call in 2 weeks to make an apt to see our priest to talk about it with him.

We did ours online.... we were literally cracking up. We did it separately, but whenever there was a good one--we read it out loud to each other.

I think the financial stuff is also going to be the thing we will have to talk about as well. Every thing else I know we've discussed, the financial questions were the only ones that I was like hmmm.... no idea! haha

I went through catholic school pre-k - 12th grade and I work in a catholic school, so I didn't have much of a choice about getting married in a church - My mother would've killed me if I didn't!

That's basically FH! Until this year he was even teaching at his old catholic school lol. Luckily, my mom knows there was no way I was going to get married in a church, so when we told FH's parents the ceremony was at the RH we just blamed it on me being a heathen haha.

I still think there is something really sweet and traditional about being in the church you grew up in, so sometimes I do get a little sad about it - but don't tell anyone!

That's too funny! We were there, that was us walking in late (as usual)! Next time say hi!

The questions were ridiculous! He kept nudging me and laughing. I had no idea what to expect but I was not expecting a scantron lol! They let him take home the book. I think he wanted it for entertainment value!
