are you ready
If my 21 year old child or my 18 year old best friend were to ask me how they know they are married for marriage, I would not know what to say. I would probably talk about having the “right age” which to some can be early, but to others it can be a long time. I would explain the consequences of marrying early such as divorce. I would explain that marriage is not a game and that it should be taken seriously as it is a lifelong commitment, sure there are times where people go through divorce but you have to live with that person every day.

If you are to marry, it should be with the person you are most comfortable with. This person should make you feel good when you are together. They should entertain you and put a smile on your face when you most need it. The person should make you feel like you are around your best friend whom you can confess your secrets and lend you a helping. The other person should help build you up and help you reach your personal goals. You should not feel like you are tied down to someone and that they are baggage. Another thing you should consider is if you want to settle down. To my child I would agree with their decision on getting married because they are older and have somewhat of a plan for their future, and are wiser in making their decision. As for my 18 year old friend, I would give her the advice to maybe wait a little longer. They are young and should go out into the world and explore all the different things you can do as a single person. I would also tell my best friend that they are younger and so their decisions are not set in stone. I would give them both this statement: “Are you ready to settle down”. Marriage will become your priority and you will not have time for many things like going out with friends especially if you plan to bring children into your home. My last advice for them would be to sit down and think if they see themselves settles with a family and
