Ready for marriage? Check out these 5 signs before you say 'I do'

Are you planning to tie the knot soon? Wait, have you checked whether you are ready for marriage or not? Many people simply do not understand that not everyone who has a job or is in love should get married.

You must always check whether you are ready to say I do before finally doing so.

Can you stay committed to one person?

Marriage is a lifelong commitment. Even though you are in love with your partner, check whether you are ready to stay committed to her/him for life, and whether can you remain loyal always. It is a difficult thing to commit and that is why you must say yes to marriage only if your mind is 100% ready to stay committed.

Do you love yourself?

After marriage, your partner will expect you to love her/him. But before that, you must try to find out whether you love yourself and understand yourself properly or not. It is because only if you are able to understand your emotional and physical needs properly you will be able to fulfill similar needs and demands of your partner.

You are realistic about your expectations

Love and romance work like magic in young lives. However, it is important to remain realistic when it comes to expectations from your marriage as it is no fairy tale incident. Just like you, your partner will also come with lots of flaws, and unexpected shortcomings and hence you must be realistic about your approach toward marriage.

Clear communication

Two people who want to marry must be able to communicate properly with each other. There should not be any hesitance or awkwardness or the marriage does not have a chance of becoming successful. Make sure that you both interact a lot and discuss everything under the sky without any inhibitions so that you are well aware of each other’s expectations and personality traits.

Do you earn enough?

Irrespective of whether you are a man or a woman, if you are planning to tie the knot it is important that you are financially independent. If you are expecting your family to support you after marriage, it can lead to a lot of dissatisfaction and displeasure; and, your partner may find it difficult to adjust with your family members.
