Being in a relationship is something very common these days, and after that, if we talk about marriages, many couples think that it’s very complicated for them and they cannot handle it.
As time passes some people start to dream about marriage as if it is something inevitable, and then there are some other people who do not deem marriage as something as important. This particular ritual simply does not end up as their priority or in the worst case scenario some events in their life shape marriage as something wrong.
And if these two types of people meet and fall in love then it would be a sort of disaster as for one, marriage would be in the cards and for the other one marriage won’t even be a question for them.
If you are the one who wants to get married then prepare yourself for the fun (not really) that would entail when you actually try to convince your partner to get married.
Let me provide you with a few tips to prepare you to enter this battlefield.
Honest Talk:
Start small. Try to talk to your partner before pulling out any of the big guns. You don’t know. It may solve the problem without any issue. Ask them why they oppose the idea of marriage so much. Do not hold back because that won’t clear up any of your confusions and you would still be standing in the same place as before this communication.
Consider Your Partner’s Need:
They may have a valid reason because of which they are probably not ready to get married yet, but it could be something they would consider in the future when they are ready. It may not be something you could relate to, but try to be empathetic and understand where he is coming from. Try to understand his needs, and provide him with space because sometimes being supportive is the best thing you can do, while they deal with their issues.
Do You Really Want to Get Married?
Evaluate yourself that whether marriage is really something you want and are you actually ready for it because marriage is not a short stint you can simply get out of. Sometimes you want to get married just because you are socially pressured to or because you “think” it is the right thing. So do yourself and your partner a favor and think before you take any action.
Be Ready to Move on:
It may break your heart but if your partner really is opposed to the idea of marriage and you really do want to get married because it is the only thing which would make you happy then leaving him would be for the best in the end.
No matter what you do make sure that you communicate before making any concrete decision because communication can clear up a lot of confusion.
