well… I’ve never really heard of a guy having the ticking clock inside, but it’s still pretty cool. No worries… you are still very young (relatively) no matter how you feel. Marriage is of course nothing that you want to rush into because of feelings. I mean of course there must be love, and your feelings are the main reason to get married… but some people rush everything before the truly get to know their partner, and that can be very tragic.

i am older than you, yet i am not married still. no plans either.
marry the right person for the right reasons.
otherwise, you will only be creating a problem.

wait a bit. marriage is like a camping backpack, problems that seem petty will turn out to be major headaches later on.

Just wait, love doesn’t just happen strong.
it needs to be worked on, forged into a strong bond over time.

I have been divorced for almost 4 years and have been dating this guy I knew 2o years ago for about 6 months and I really feel that I am ready for marriage again as well. If you and your partner are willing to work hard at saving your marriage than go for it. But, if either one of looks as divorce as an option, or wants to draw up a prematial agreement than don’t waste your time.

Girlfriends are forbidden by God, just look for a good woman, i’m sure there’s plenty. Don’t waste your time with girlfriends, people are advising you wrongly with their foolish opinions. Go get married straight away, dive right in! Love’ll come later.
