Five Important Precursors for Marriage
By John Gray
So, how do you ensure that marriage and misery don't go hand-in-hand? Here are five important precursors for sharing a lifetime of love:
1. Trust. If you can't trust your partner, you will never feel secure in the relationship, with or without a band of gold on your finger.
2. Commitment. Only if both of you are committed to the time, effort and emotions it takes to entwine your lives will you have the fortitude to live happily ever after.
3. Respect. For whatever reason, if you don't have respect for your partner, or your partner doesn't feel you deserve love, eventually resentment will tear you apart.
4. Communication. By learning to read each others' subliminal signals, .and to listen to the unspoken emotions between words, you'll best hear and understand each others' fears, concerns, goals and desires.
5. Passion. Sexual desire keeps you connected, even during tough financial times. It's not easy feeling poor, but it's certainly a lot easier scrimping and saving with someone you love.
