things to consider before marriage

Marriage isn't something that should be jumped into. It is a serious commitment that should be carefully thought through. These are some things to consider...

*Do you love the person enough to stay with them forever?

* Do you like their In-Laws? Do they like you?

* Do we have the finances to support each other?

* Do we want kids? How many?

* Where are we going to live?

* Does this person have drug/alcohol issues? Is he/she a violent person?


These are very important things that need to be looked at before the "I do's" start flying around. More than half of the marriages in the U.S. end in divorce. Divorce is something that can ruin lives financially and emotionally. That is why before you tie the knot, you need to have a talk with your spouse and discuss what you are willing to sacrifice to be with this person.
