4 reasons why shouldn’t you rush into marriage
Everyone around me are either getting engaged, married or even giving birth. And when you see these on the news feed of your Facebook, some guys may find the urge to propose, and girls will be eager to get married. Some may also get anxious when friends and family are already asking…. “Boy ah, when is your turn?”
But this is not right! We shouldn’t rush into marriage because….
1. Marriage is not a trend.
SO MANY PEOPLE AROUND YOU ARE GETTING MARRIED AND STARTING A FAMILY. BUT…. Relationships cannot be rushed to maturity. You need to pick a pick a partner who share similar values and interests to enhance the chances of a smooth relationship. Marriage is not like a relationship because breaking one isn’t easy and it involves the people around you. It doesn’t mean that if your best friends both got hitched, you’re next in line.
2. Marriage is a life-long commitment.
It comes with responsibilities and the ability to think of US than me. Are you ready to be responsible for someone else’s future? Also, are you financially stable to start a family? What if your partner still enjoy his or her freedom? Will he or she be happy to give in just because you want to get married?
3. If you do not share the same priorities and goals, marriage should come later.
What if both of you are not on the same page about each other’s career goals? Some people who marry at a young age often shares the same common regret of not living their life to the fullest. Time and responsibilities – Can they still be as carefree? Or do they still have the time and space to chase their dreams? Career-driven people will be able to understand this point.
4. A marriage will not guarantee that the relationship will not fall apart.
Just because you haven’t tied the knot, does’t mean that the relationship is not complete. Do not rush to find the marriage fall apart later. Take your time to experience the dating phase first.
