1. “I’m not sure.”
If it’s a basic question about your relationship, too many uncertain answers can raise concerns.
2. “We didn’t think that was important.”
Details about your life together matter. Dismissing them can make it seem like you’re not genuinely sharing a life.
3. “My spouse handles all of that.”
It’s normal to divide responsibilities, but you should still have a general understanding of your shared finances, home, and daily life.
4. “I don’t remember.”
Nobody expects perfect recall, but repeatedly forgetting major milestones or facts about your relationship can create doubt.
5. “We never really talked about that.”
Married couples typically discuss important aspects of their lives. A lack of knowledge about each other can become a red flag.
The goal isn’t to memorize answers—it’s to clearly and honestly explain the real life you’ve built together.
