So you have been dating for the required nine months or longer and you are thinking that a proposal of marriage is the logical next step but are you really sure that is what you want? (ed. note: A collection of video proposals)
Sometimes we take that important next step because we have reached a certain age, we have dated a certain amount of time, or we want to start a family and the biological clock is ticking away! We want it and we enter into our commitment for some valid reasons, but maybe we need to step back and make sure we are not rushing things. Patience now can save years of heartache and pain later.
Here are some questions to ask yourself:
- Is your significant other well suited to you?
- Do you like the way he treats his family?
- Do you share the same values?
- Are you happy with the life path he has chosen?
- Are you happy with the person he is now? (Most likely he won’t be changing after you marry.)
- Can you say that you never ask yourself, “Oh, he won’t behave that way after we are married” or “He’ll want children after we are married”?
If the answers to any of these questions are no, you should think about your relationship and whether you are in the right place. It is true like the song says that “breaking up is hard to do” but it will allow you to explore other opportunities and pay off in the long run.
