Last night I had a conversation with a guy about marriage. Initially the conversation was started because he asked me when me and another person were going to get married. I then asked him why him and his girlfriend were not married.
The conversation was very interesting. He informed me that he seemed advice from people who were still married and that most of the people he knew were no longer married. He has not married his girlfriend because he hasn’t been exposed to a lot of successful marriages.
A lot of people stay in relationships and never marry because they are no need to because of it being seen as a “title”. Is marriage a title? How do you know when it is the right time for marriage?
I always say myself being married before the age of 30, but here I am 31 years young and I am not even knocking on marriages door. I would love to be married, but it just never seems to be the right time or situation.
I have been around a lot of married people and a lot of the marriages have not lasted. I know a few people who have been married two and three times. Marriage should be cherished and I only want to do it once. So how do you know when it is the right time for marriage? How do you know that it is time to go from being a couple to being husband and wife? Is it necessary to transition from boyfriend and girlfriend to husband and wife?
