Can you imagine your life without them in it?
That’s 1.
When your not with them are they all you think about?
That’s 2
Do you put them before yourself without even thinking about it?
That’s 3
The rest is up to you.
More important than finding the right person to marry is finding the right one to divorce. Statistically it will happen as there is a 50% chance; the person who will be kind, gentle, forgiving and perhaps a wonderful parent… separated from you… that’s a keeper.
Marrying is easy. Divorce is hard. Keep the one you’d love should you divorce.
If they were in a car accident today and unable to work or take care of themselves ever again, would you stay with them? That’s my criteria.
Marriage is a lot of sacrifice for another person’s happiness, on both sides, so you are either willing to go through the fire with them or not. And life can be a very hot fire.
^^There she goes again. Getting to my answer before me.
I once asked my grandma how she managed to marry twice, and both were so very special. How did she know?
She said, “If you can picture yourself changing his diapers when you are both old, he’s the right guy.”
You could never tell. People and their feeling are subject to change. The only way to tell is to live through trial and errors in relationship. Which is why divorce is still happening.
