How can you tell that you're ready for marriage?
Marriage, one word that has a lot of things going on in it. When you marry to someone that means you are ready to deal with his/her bad and good things.Marriage, in my country, is not only between the bride and the groom. Marriage means, you will have to deal with the whole family (not just the nuclear family, but the extended family too).
Marriage, for me, is about love, commitment, and readiness. Do I love my partner? Does he love me? Will I be able to stick to the commitment that I've made? Will he be able to stick to the commitment that he has made? Am I ready to deal with my partners goods and bads? Am I ready to deal with my partners family?
For the first two things, I think I'll know the answer. But for the last thing, readiness, I don't know how to answer it. Does anyone know?

I'm thinking to much, ain't i?
About the family, I wouldn't like to be married to his whole family although I would love it, if I love this man. In my case, I didn't know my husband's family till 1 month before we got married, I just didn't care, and i should have cared. To tell you the truth, his mother did a lot to ruin our marriage.
And a licens to have children.
Ariel, Hm.. an Intrusive (is that a correct word?) mother is somehow a catastrohpy. That's what I'm afraid of when getting married..
Let them get married and learn on there own.no marriage is perfect,tho it may seem on the surface ,but every marriage is different behind close doors.
Daniel thank you so much, I like it in rice together with other vegetables!
I gladly marry the whole family!
Its return to yourself, & your feeling will tell that.
