Planning To Wed Question: Are You Sure You Are Both Ready?

Surely loving each other is enough reason to want to get married you might say. Yes, fine, of course you are in love with each other but are really prepared to live together for the rest of your lives?

If you haven’t talked through the 5 situations listed below and have carefully listened to each others feelings about them you are still not ready to take those final vows.

And why should you both talk about the 5 subjects below before you make your ultimate vows to each other? Just what is so essential concerning them?

The answer to those questions is simple- one or more of the 5 subjects listed below are, as a rule, the origin of most divorces in the US today.

The experts reckon that if all couples planning to wed talked about the five issues below before marriage the divorce level in the US could be cut by something like 83% and on the rest of the earth by over 60%.

And what are the five issues?

Kids- do you want children? If one of you doesn’t you marriage will very soon be on the rocks believe me! And if you both want kids how are you going to raise them?

Religion- do you have any beliefs and if so how intense are they? If you don’t have faith in a superior power how do you deal with moral issues?

Money- how do you feel concerning the subject? Are you a spender or a saver as regards money?

Family- how do you feel about each others relatives?

Sex- how important do you feel sex is as part of a marriage?

The subjects mentioned above are so critical that if you can’t agree on every one of them it might be better for both of you not to marry the other but go and find someone more in tune with your opinions and beliefs.

Now I know that sounds unkind, but I make no defence for repeating what I said above- one or more of these issues- Children, Religious Belief, Money , Relations and Sex are by and large the reason for divorce in the USA today.

So folks, I entreat you, ponder carefully, discuss the matters above and listen with care to each others answers BEFORE you make that absolute vow to live happily ever after.
