Your interactions with them (and them with you) should just flow naturally. Nothing should feel forced or coerced. Definitely spend time to learn about them in every conceivable way before you get married. That way there aren't any surprises and you know exactly who they are.

My wife (of 12 years) ended up being a good friend of mine from highschool who I had lost contact with for a few years. Just happened to randomly bump into her shortly after a break up (I broke up with someone a few weeks before) and we just hit it off again.

Make a list of the things that truly matter, and meet as many ppl as possible who can fit your criteria. If nothing else, it may at least help you refine what those elements should be. Typically we're unaware of our internal biases and don't actually 'want' what we think we do

This is a massive problem that is related to a lack of face-to-face communities in general. If people had face-to-face communities, maybe kind of like when you're in school, you could get to know people for a long time without the effort and pressure of dating.
