How do you know you’re ready to get married?
Cupid’s Advice:
So, you’ve been thinking about tying the knot. You’ve been with your significant other for awhile now and it’s only natural to start thinking about taking the next step. How do you if you’re really ready for marriage? Cupid has some advice:
1. Know your partner’s expectations:Â Before you head down to the altar, make sure you’re aware of what your partner expects from you. As far as life goals go, if the two of you aren’t on the same page, getting married might not be the best decision. Do you want to live in the same place as your future spouse does? Is he/she where she wants to be career-wise? Will children be added into the equation soon? Ask yourself these questions before you make a trip to the jewelry store.
2. Commitment:Â You must be prepared to fully commit to your love. Once you’re married, there’s no running away (unless you count divorce, but no one wants that). Sometimes, you’ll have to make sacrifices and you will have to learn how to be completely selfless. If you still enjoy the perks of living as a bachelor/bachelorette, pump the brakes on the wedding plans and wait until you’re ready to work with your partner as a unit.
3. You have that “feeling”:Â When most people meet “The One,” they just know that he/she is person they’re supposed to spend the rest of their life with. It’s hard to explain to anyone else, but you know in your heart that you’re ready to make the ultimate commitment. As a couple, the two of you have been through many ups and downs, but through it all you have still managed to make your relationship the best it can be. You know everything isn’t perfect, but you’re ready to take that leap of faith anyway.
