How long should somebody date before getting married?

How long do you think its the approprate time to be in a relationship before being convince that your partner is the right person for you and you should go ahead to marry him/her?

Sort:  

It is not the question of "how long" but "how ready are you to go into marriage?" Can you two stand by your own money-wise? Do you think that you could live with that person forever? Can you accept his/her flaws and annoying habits?

One could date someone for 8 years, but could never truly open up and get to know each other because he/she was just used to the other persons presence and not "love" the other person

one must at least wait two years to increase the chances of getting a happy marriage and last a lifetime. A recent study shows that as many as 67% of couples date and have lived together, but have not married with reason for fear of divorce. This fear does not only come from legal, financial reasons, but also privately and socially if they are divorced. Interestingly, this fear actually provides opportunities for many couples to get a healthy and happy marriage. because it means they will need more time to get to know each other before deciding to get married.
Time Is the only way to activate one part of the brain that is responsible for making logical decisions and plans. However, usually time does not affect your brain when you fall in love with new people and this is what is called love drunk.
One of the problems that often occurs with an intense feeling of love in the early stages is the oldest part of the brain will be active, which is the part that deals with desire, obsession, and motivation.

Feelings This intense love can reduce your ability to think logically and rationally about the couple you are currently with. For this reason, time is needed for the brain to adjust the situation and feeling you feel, so you can find out if the person who is in a relationship with you is really right for you.

I Think that the old and slow process of love to get to know someone will help the brain to organize some parts of decision making. You will know how couples behave with your parents, your friends, how they manage their money, how they argue, and other things.

I see marriage as something that is delicate and a very important institution,so that is why i think two people must understand each other very well before they marry each other...i think they should at least date for two years

Experts believe that waiting a few years to get married can preclude life stabilizing the more established as well as a lower divorce rate. A study, published the Journal of Political Economy of the year 2008 found that for each year you delay to marry, the opportunities for divorced will is getting low. On the basis of many different studies and survey, the divorce rate could slump to 50 percent if you marry at the age of 25, compared to married in the early twenties age.

There are many reasons why the age of the mid-20s to early 30s became the ideal age benchmark is married. One of them is a factor of maturity. Adult here not only the increase of the age, but also in terms of emotional intelligence and maturity of thought patterns. In her mid-20s, you also counted already mature enough to understand right where love blinded lust and love based on sincerity.

Because, the more mature person, they have spent a considerable amount of time to his self-searching and finally knowing for sure what they really want in life. They also understand what responsibility he has for the sake of achieving life goals. The more mature a person also could indicate that it come with physical maturity and stability of qualified for financial support themselves as well as other dependants.

The higher the education level, the more lasting households

But despite the level of maturity and financial plays a major factor, the level of education is also equally important. Postpone the wedding until after receiving a scholarship, lowers the risk of you to divorce than couples who are educated are low, according to a study of Family Relation of the year 2013.

That needs to be understood, hold off getting married after the lecture is not simply to pursue a degree. Attended extended into the street to open your insights to the world, and the many different people that you will meet to talk and exchange ideas. Gradually, this all can shape personality, the principle of life, and your overall mindset.

When you get married, depending on the readiness of each self

However, of course the decision when to marry cannot be based only by sheer survey results. Ultimately, yourself alone to determine when the right time for you to get married. Whether it's in their 20 's, 30 's, 40 's, and so on. There is no age limit or the ideal period of courtship that is able to guarantee the happiness of marriage. In fact, marriage and divorce is a social phenomenon which is difficult to be measured simply by the numbers.

Nobody forbids to quickly marry. If you and your partner are already equally ready lahir-batin to marry young, sure no problem. But for others, still does not hurt to try once again to strike a heart. Whether you are indeed ready to sail the inner born Ark households, or just simply for the sake of pursuing social status and avoid tedious questions: "when is the marriage?"
