ππππππππππππππ
Marriage is a very serious enterprise therefore people who want to go into it must do so with all manner of seriousness,
More often than not men think it is rather the woman who needs to prepare herself psychologically for the marriage , single men need to prep themselves for marriage too,a man's preparation is not just paying for the bride price but also preparing emotionally , mentally, and spiritually ,however the following points must be considered when you are looking forward to enter into any serious relationship leading to marriage,
1) Make sure you are mature enough physically, mentally , emotionally, and psychologically, marriage goes beyond being able to put a ring over the fingers of a woman,or the ability to make babies , you should go into it with your mind being alert, your emotions being stable and you being able to understand issues from a psychological or a mature point of view.
2) Be financially sound and physically independent .a man is the head of the marriage, therefore almost all the financial responsibility of the house rest on your shoulders , therefore you must make sure you are resourced financially, that is having a regular stream of income , aside that ,you should not be seen as depending on your parents or family on every little decision regarding your marriage or spouse, learn how to be your own man ,
3) place God at the center of your marriage, marriage is an institution of God, it's one of God's plan for mankind therefore it will be very unwise putting God aside in your marriage and trying to get it right on your own your own terms,, surrender every marital problem into the hands of God & invite him to take the center stage in your marriage including it's preparations,hand over the wheels to him and you will never be disappointed in your marital journey
4) Be in the known about the status of your personal health before you say I do, don't get into marriage with all health implications, unknown to you, because your woman have the right to know everything about both of you
5) don't get into marriage with your single life mentality, being married is different from being single, there a lot of things you can't do or people you can't frequently hung around once you married, you are now going to learn how to live with another person the rest of your life, now you have a responsibility, now there is always someone to go home to, someone to care
