Hi. I plan to get married the next year to my girlfriend of 4 years. Since I have been staying alone for the past three years, I have no clue how a home for a couple should be. Could you suggest me the necessities a couple will need besides cleanliness ? :)

congadulation on your plans to get married. A clean home is important abut ever couple is different. Ask you wife to be what are thing she feels she needs in the home to make it feeling like a home for here. Also think of what would be on your must have list to make a place feel like yourhome and go from there. when i started off. I needed my home to be able to enteraine family and friends. my guy at the time wanted a place to work on his cars and bikes. we worked on these goals together. I ended up not marring that person. and now that i am thinking of marriage again... I already live with my new guy. I am not sure what he need in the home to feel like it home for him but I will be asking him this question because you posting this made me think that we have not had this talk/ so thank you for the idea.

The first thing you will need is a decent house to live in. Then you will have to get the basic materials like a fridge, cot/bed, stove/microwave to start with. Then you should ask your would-be about what she would like to have in "her" house. :)

First of all i came to know that you got a good house for rent. So congrats for that. So i even know you are going to get married to your girlfriend who is presently working with you and in past she was your classmate too. ( if am right).
ya I will give you couple of listed items for you so that you can make arrangements before you marriage.
A double cot for your room.
Bed.
Bed sheet.
Blanket.
A Refrigerator.
A cupboard. ( I think its already there with you )
A washing machine.
A mixer grinder.
A pair of pants & Shirts for u.
Twenty pairs of modern dresses for your wife.
It is better that you buy all these things now itself so that she won't shout at you or dominate you in future.
or else you will be getting beatings from broom and all those stuff in your house.
