I: We just have so much in common. We like all of the same things.

I: It doesn’t matter. I know we’ll end up getting married.

C: I’m afraid you’re putting the cart before the horse. You should at least meet him first.

put the cart before the horse

cart  是「馬車」，put the cart before the horse 原意為「將馬車放在馬前面」，表示做事的順序不合邏輯，即「本末倒置」之意。

• Discussing profits before setting clear goals is putting the cart before the horse.
