How to Know You Are Ready to Get Married

My best ever piece of advice has nothing to do with what to wear.

Do you think you’ve found someone you should marry? Here’s how to know:

if you can honestly see flaws in the person that cause you to question whether you can live with them for the rest of your life, and you are willing to accept those imperfections, you may be ready to get married.

The flip side of this is:

if the person still seems perfect, you are not. Ready to get married, that is. You already knew you weren’t perfect, didn’t you?

Remember, nobody’s perfect.  I would choose my hero’s set of flaws over any unknown set anyday!

  1. I am in awe. You could publish a book about this.
    It would be a very short book because you wouldn’t
    need to write anything further.

  2. You told me this a very long time ago (15 years, maybe?) and it is so true. I quote it often, along with “you can judge the success of your marriage by the number of bite marks on your tongue.” tee hee

  3. I completely disagree with “bite marks on your tongue” saying. I’m married. And always have been ever since I met my husband (at first in my head, for over 4 years and then officially) and never crossed my mind that keeping something from him would improve our relationship (on the contrary). I realize we are one of the lucky few to feel as one (not only in words) and indeed, it’s not about husband equal hero or mr perfect.
