Another common problem some people have is in dealing with the in-laws. While this doesn't have to be a deal breaker for you, you do need to know about any potential future problems and to decide whether you accept being in that kind of a relationship.
While most people don't have any of the more dangerous or untreatable STDs, it is important to talk to your partner regarding this. Be upfront and ask them directly whether they currently have or had STDs in the past.
Another common problem some people have, is their new lovers try to keep their friendships with ex-lovers. Everyone that has any experience with dating knows that being friends with an ex is completely impossible, and can only bring problems in the long-term.

If you notice that your partner is not making the same kind of effort regarding your relationship (or keeping their health and body fit), then that is definitely a thing you should talk through with them. The more frustrated you are, the worse things can get in the relationship.
If you are in a serious relationship, and there are talks about marriage and/or having kids, then you do need to know about your lover's fertility. If he or she has any issues, they need to be upfront with you about that matter.
If you notice that your lover is depressed or shows some symptoms of depression, you could perhaps have a talk with them about that. The reason you should talk with them is not to make things difficult, but to try to help them get better.
