Does a potential spouse have to reveal past sins if asked about it?

So it's a good question. So in terms of this, there are a couple of things we need to bear in mind. Number one, yes we should not expose our sins, but number two there's also the important principle of being honest and telling the truth. So how do we combine between the two? Anything that's going to potentially affect the future marriage should be disclosed. Anything that will potentially affect the future marriage, whether it be let's say somebody is in a huge financial debt or somebody has a specific medical condition, something along those lines should be disclosed. Sometimes there are questions such as have you been in past relationships and yes, you may not want to answer directly. So what you could say is indirectly after the meeting is finished or the conversation is finished, just say 'I don't think I fulfill your criteria.' That way you're not exposing yourself in terms of any mistakes or sins you have made, but also you're giving the other person clarity as well. So anything which will potentially affect the future marriage should be disclosed.
