Exactly! If you are really serious about your partner, then this can also be seen as a considerate and thoughtful way to approach the relationship. It's something you do because you both care about yourselves and each other.
If by chance something were to show up, well... there are a lot of people who can work with or through some of these things. Ultimately if you think the relationship is worth the work or considerations it can be informative and helpful.. the only way this wouldn't turn out so well is if in fact you are not serious - but in any case you have looked out for No.1, (yourself). Much better to be safe than sorry, right?
