ARE YOU READY TO
COMPROMISE IN THE RELATIONSHIP?
Love your
playstation? Love talking for hours on the phone? Or love just sitting back on
the couch and swishing beer cans into the bin? Are you ready to give it all up
for the sake of your relationship? What about food habits, sleeping habits and
how long either of you take in the bathroom?
A marriage
looks cute from the outside, but in real life, marriage is about love and
compromise. And this compromise should come naturally. Many people in failing
marriages say marriage is nothing but a compromise, and a give-and-take
relationship. But that’s far from the truth.
Marriage isn’t
about compromise, love is. And it comes from the heart. You shouldn’t
compromise to put up with your partner, you should do it only if it genuinely
makes you happy. Lovers like pleasing each other with little acts of kindness
and love, because it brings each other more joy and happiness. Are you ready to
compromise for each other? Remember, you are going to live with each other now,
and you are going to be sharing a lot more than a few hours every day.
CAN YOU HANDLE YOUR
LOVER’S SHORTCOMINGS?
Now, as perfect
as either of you are, none of us are entirely perfect. We come with our own
packages of good and bad. Good is wonderful and sweet. But can you handle the
bad? Can you handle it if your partner snores? Or gets up at three in the
morning because they are hungry? Or leaves the toilet unflushed? Or perhaps,
you or your partner feels lazy after work, while the other person likes to rest
only after finishing all the chores. These are just a tiny part of the
different shortcomings that we all come with. You may think you can definitely
handle these things, but these shortcomings are actually the biggest reasons
why relationships and marriages fail!
CAN YOU HANDLE EACH
OTHER’S LIKES AND DISLIKES?
Over times,
little details like likes and dislikes can make sharing together time an
unbearable pain. He likes watching the game, while she likes watching a TV
show? Or do you like Chinese food while your partner likes Indian food? While
dating, these differences seem cute and adorable, but in a marriage, these are
not cute acts that happen once in a while. You have to deal with it every
single day. And it’s left to both of you to compromise and adjust your own
likes and dislikes to match that of your partner’s. For a successful marriage,
you need to match your likes and dislikes and compromise with each other’s
demands.
SO WHAT’S THE RIGHT
AGE TO GET MARRIED NOW?
Now that you
know what it takes to hold on to a successful marriage, ask yourself the same
question truthfully. Is this the right age to get married for you? Leaving the
average age of marriage apart, are you and your partner really ready to move in
together and live as a married couple? These five questions can seem really
simple, but unless you give them a serious consideration, you might come back
to this page a few months later and wonder how such small things became such
unbearable issues that are tearing your marriage apart.
So always be
cautious. Take time to decide, and give it enough thought. It’s easy to take a
plunge into the ocean of love. But are you going to like the pleasant sensation
or will it be a shocking and icy chill? These questions will give you the
answer.
So what is the right age to get married for you? Now you know
the answer, and really, the average age of marriage makes no difference, it’s
these five questions that divide the happy marriages from the failed ones.
PLEASE LEAVE YOUR COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS IN THE COMMENT BOX BELOW. THEY WOULD BE TREATED PROMPTLY.
