1 – Before You Meet Someone Special
- What do you think is the best age to get married? (if there is one)
- What do you think are the signals that someone is mature enough and ready for a serious relationship?
- What are your thoughts about preparing yourself for a relationship? Studying about marriage?
- Should you have your whole life sorted out before having a serious relationship or getting married? OR
Is it okay to still be working on personal stuff? (Like showing responsibility, finishing your education, developing other lasting healthy friendships, accomplishing financial goals, and so on)For reflection…
“… [Y]outh should [marry] while still young and in full possession of their physical vigor.”
“There are advantages and disadvantages in whatever one does, and there is always some unpredictability about the future. An individual should decide on such matters in the light of his circumstances, possibilities and responsibilities. It may be best for you to consult with the members of your family and close friends who are familiar with your situation and whose wisdom and farsightedness you respect.”
