You get to know them well enough before you get engaged that you're confident that you are generally compatible. (And yes, there are some things that would be deal breakers if you found out about them, at any stage, but I wouldn't call those more serious flaws mere "personality quirks.")

It's one thing to learn to like someone else's interests, it's quite another to figure out how to adjust to someone else's personality quirks. Especially ones that are very different from your own. I mean, imagine a Vorpalette Blade. Could you marry her and find happiness? (Or Vorpal, could you find happiness with a Mardukess?)

You know, something like a capitalist pig skinned with a sickle and tenderized with a hammer. Skewered on its own petard, slow roasted over revolutionary flames, and served with a copy of Marx's Manifesto stuffed in its mouth.
