Saturday, February 14, 2009:the right time for marriage
So you've been together for the longest time.You've cried and laughed together,burped and farted in each other's presence without shame, dug out each other's secrets and wildest fantasies and his family and friends just adore you,nuw wad???It's strange how love comes in when you least expect it.Just like that marriage proposal.Nuw hold on a second b4 u gladly accept tat 5 carat diamond ring. R u readi fer this?is there a right time to get hitched?D ans is a definte yes.Needless to say, it is not apt to determine what the "RIGHT" age should be or the "EXACT" number of years you need to be together in order to get hitched.But certainly, you should ve financialli and psychologicalli sound, at the very least.As clinche as it sounds,marriage is a "LIFELONG COMMITMENT".

Marriage is probabli one of the biggest life changing decisions you'll ever make in your life.When contemplating marriage,it is best to consider factors other than age or the amount of time spent together.Just these two factors alone would not get you thru the rocky parts of marriage.

One of the first issues that you could discuss when considering the idea of marriage is personal beliefs(not just spritiual),Make sure you believe in the same things to avoid fights later.Also ask,"Who's gonna do the cleaning?","Who's in charge of finances?", and if children are involved,"Who's changing the diapers?" these may seem like small issues but they can cause some pretty huge fights if you both arent willing to compromise and work things out.As long as you share the same expectations annd beliefs, you can work together o achieve them,But if you expect different things,one of you will alwaes be disappointed.

Another thing that should be discussed before marriage is children.Do you both want them?if yes,how many?Do you agree on the way you want to disclipline them?What about issues like breastfeeding vs. bottle feeding and cloth vs. disposable diapers?Will one of you quit werking to stay home with the children?If yes, fer huw long?Children need consistency in their lives,it;s important that you and your partner are on the same page.

While its true that money cant buy love, it is important to consider finances when thinking marriage.If you are a big saver,do you realli want to be married to someone with several 1000s in credit card debts?Another thing to consider is whether or not the two of you will be able to make it on your own financially.Are both mature enough to hold a steady job and paying all of your own bills in time?

Knowing your partner before you get married is the most imoprtant thing.When you know you are ready, your age or how long you've been together won't matter.You dont have to agree on everything.The important thing is that you and your partner have talked thru these questions and both feel confident you can live n werk together,knowing wad the other believes.
