Marriage is a very serious and sacred commitment not only with the person you love but above all with God. This is a promise that you will stick together no matter what happens. With this, you really have to be sure if you are completely prepared to live up with the commitment. Many people think divorce is the easy way out once you feel that you no longer want to stay in the marriage but this should not be the case. Divorce is a long and emotional process but you can spare yourself from this if you will be careful with your decisions. You have to be sure that the person you are with now will be the same person that you would want to spend the rest of your life with plus you also have to make sure that the timing is right. So how would you know if you are prepared to be married already? Answer first these five questions:

1. Are you financially stable? – financially stable in the sense that you have a good source of income, you already established yourself in the field you want to excel at and most important of all you feel secure in terms of financial issues. We have to be practical because life is not getting easier and if you want to start a family of your own, you have to be secure financially. You do not want to see your family with no food on the table. You want them to have the comfortable life that they deserve so if you want to get married, your bank account and wallet need to be prepared as well.

2. Are you completely committed? – having a partner for few months does not necessarily mean that you are committed to the person. Before you get married make sure that you are already 100 percent committed to the person meaning you are ready to answer his or her questions about where you came from, you are willing to go different places with him or her and most of all you are willing to take for granted other men or women no matter how attractive or interesting they are. This is the difference of marriage to simple boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, when you are married you cannot just leave the person for another because this will be a crime with the law of society and law of God as well. So before you propose to your partner ask yourself “am I fully committed to this person already?”

3. Are you in love? – last but certainly not the least you have to ask yourself if you are in love with this person. Adoring him or her is not enough reason to get married. Why? Because if you just adore the person and not completely in love with him or her the tendency is that this adoration will eventually fade away. What if the person gets fat? If you just adore his or her physique then you will lose interest with him or her once the person gets fat. However, if you are deeply in love with the person, no matter what the changes in her physical aspects you will still look at her the same way or even more, because you love him or her.

These are the questions you need to ponder on before you decide to get married. Be objective and try to answer the questions as honestly as possible because once you rush your way to marriage, you might just suffer the consequences.
