subject: Facts About Marriage And Getting Married [print this page] "For many, marriage is a subject that scares them. They are either afraid of commitment or they simply do not want to be with someone. Perhaps, other factors could be involved such as the fact that teenage marriages and the divorce rates are all going up.
Getting married should not only be based on the fleeting butterfly feeling on your stomach or the tingling sensation you feel when you are with somebody. That's because marriage is more than just emotions. Marriage involves responsibility, trust, commitment and the act of surrendering your life to the person you vow to love forever. Many people think that marriage is a trial and error relationship which can be ended easily by going to the court and filing for divorce when things don't work out. Of course, this is absolutely not right. You need to know that even romantic relationships such as marriages needs to be worked on.
It would be better that you think about this issue a hundred times before deciding to tie the know. These are a few considerations:
1. Are you willing to give up yourself for the life of the person you love?
2. Are you willing to give your 101 percent love, trust, commitment, loyalty, fidelity, and forgiveness every time your partner commits a mistake?
3. Can you give up your own happiness for the sake of your partner's? Are you willing to sacrifice your work should your partner ask you to stop working so that you can stay at home and take care of your kids? Are you willing to be relocated and be away from your family and friends should he be reassigned to another place?
Anyone can get married whenever they want regardless of how old they are. Love can't be measured by age alone. However, the majority of those getting a divorce are from the teenage marriage bracket. Why is this so? Marriage is not just about love and bliss. It is about maturity both emotional and mental. Get to know the person well before you decide to tie the knot.

They were both ready to accept each other for all of each other's strengths and weaknesses. If you think you have found the person whom you want to spend the rest of your life with, then go ahead and get married.
