there are so many things to be considered first before going to marriage...first your budget. second financial status and third your mate. this is the major of all.

well that is a loaded question, the things that i think matter most in answering that is how well do you know each other. Are you financially secure and heading in the same direction as to not cause conflicts. Love does not equal smooth sailing, if you are happiest when together and don't get on each others nerves after living together for a while(I highly recommend doing that first) then you may be as ready as you are ever going to be

I know that I am ready to get married if I have known the person and accepted him as he is. I must see him in his best and worst moods so I'd know how to deal with him. I know that life is not a bed of roses so I must know how he deals with problems and with life.

Normally people are caught on an emotional behaviour with the partner and it is not only to fall in love, the desire to be together with the person is very strong, some scientist call it the surviving behaviour when subliminal ideas on mind are saying the partner is the ideal for companion and to get children.

My friends told me that if youre together for so many years and yet you still feel delighted when you see each other, when you like being with him coz you share almost everything and both love exploring, when you finally can live with each other's flaws and mood swings thats the time you'll know youre emotionally ready to get married. Financial wise, i think its that time when youre both stable.

You have got to be sure that you want to spend the rest of your life next to that one person. Run the vows through your head and know that it is a committment that is meant to be forever. It is a vow to yourself, your future spouse, god, and the world that you want nobody or nothing else more in the world.
