I have an appointment to go meet the priest this weekend. What is he going to ask me? Should I be totally honest with this guy? After all, I wasnt always perfect.

This should only pertain to your current life with your current boyfriend/fiance. Your past is YOUR past and you only have to share what you feel is pertinent to the present relationship! :)
Some things in our past when told unnecessarily only serve to hurt the ones we are presently with....
Good luck :)

Answer whatever questions he asks you truthfully.
Most likely he is going to talk with you about the wedding, what kind of relationship you currently have and hope to continue into your wedding. The goal of meeting with you ahead of time is to provide you with some pre-marriage couseling (helps you prepare for whats to come) and how to cope with married life after the honeymoon.
Relax, I'm sure you'll be fine. Just remember why you are getting married & that'll be a great icebreaker!!
Got news for you, no one is perfect.

Answer his questions honestly. I mean he is a priest. Don't give him your life story though, he doesn't need to know that. He is probably just seeing if you and your soon to be hubby are compatable, etc. You shouldn't lie to the priest at all. He should understand you. After all he is human to and isn't perfect either. Good Luck! :)

He will probably ask you about your relationship with your fiance: what you like and don't like about it, if there are any changes you would like to see, etc. He's not out to break up the marriage, he just wants you both to be honest about these things so you identify any potential problems. Be honest, it can really be a great eye-opener.

that depends..if catholic like me you meet with him, than confess all your sin's plus you would have to go to a retreat with your spouse for 3 days to see if you are ready for married, children etc. yes always be honest with a priest..remember he works for the man above, who knows you very well

Of course you want to be honest, do you want to start your marriage off knowing you lied to the priest?!?

Most of the questions that you will be asked at this initial stage are very general. I soubt that he will address any issues of your past at this point in time.
Just relax and try to be yourself.
One word of caution, make sure that your spouse to be knows everything about your not-so-perfect past. He/She is the most interested person in knowing about it.

he wasn't always perfect either and he still isnt no matter how hard he tries. calm down. dont let his title get to you. he is just as human as you are. treat him like you would anyone else, tell him what you feel comfortable telling him.
