Marriage - Don t Rush!
Some women believe they'll never be "whole" or a "real woman" until they find a man and get married. Women who are in a hurry to get married are sometimes desperate to have children, while others are anxious to move out of their parents' house. These women usually either end up in unhappy marriages, or ruin their chances of getting married in the first place.
There's a wise saying we can all benefit from: "Marry in haste, repent at leisure." It's very true. If you marry someone without getting to know them first, it could end in a divorce. Many women who rush to the alter fail to ask pre marriage questions that would help them get to know their partner better. You need to know your mate's stance on things such as politics, religion, money, and children.
When a desperate woman thinks she's found her man, she might want to get married as soon as possible because she wants to make sure he doesn't "get away." Even if there are rough spots in the relationship, they hope that marriage will somehow magically take care of all their problems. They couldn't be more wrong. Marriage doesn't make problems in your relationship go away. Marriage magnifies them.
Finally, women who are in a hurry to find a husband will often send out desperate vibes that send most men running the other way. They're lucky to keep a man beyond the first few dates!
It's best to find contentment within yourself first. If you are fulfilled and confident as a person, men will be much more attracted to you. If you're happy with yourself, you will be in a much better position to find a man who will add to your happiness.
Once you find the man you'd like to marry, you want to be sure to get to know him as well as possible. That means asking pre marriage questions about issues like children, money, personal goals, etc. There's an ebook called "1000 Questions for Couples" that can help you learn how compatible you are.
