For most people, getting into a relationship means seeing a future together, and it’s often assumed that a wedding is in the plans. However, marriage isn’t for everyone, and that’s completely fine. Whether you don’t want to spend the money, simply don’t believe in it, or for whatever reason, it’s all legitimate.
Before you go off to sign those papers, be sure to spot the clear signs that this tradition of getting married isn’t for you. Here are red light you should not get married.
1. You’ve never wanted to get married
- While some people grow up dreaming of their perfect wedding, that’s not the case for everyone. There are some people who never actually want to get married. They’re just fine with their life.
2. It’s not something you believe in
- Some people consider marriage little more than a piece of paper, while others think it’s the only way to truly commit. Both opinions are legitimate.
3. You’re unsure about the other person
- Just because you’ve been together for a while doesn’t mean you need to get married. You can still be unsure about spending the rest of your life with that person. Don’t rush to the altar.
4. You’ve witnessed the drawbacks to marriage
- If you’re familiar with divorce, you know how much it can impact and devastate a family. So it’s not uncommon to want to avoid getting married.
5. You don’t have a real reason for wanting to get married
- Most people get married because they want to legalize their love for their partner. However, if you don’t have a reason for wanting to tie the knot, don’t feel like you have to.
6. The two of you are always fighting
- Of course, some fighting is normal. But if you’re fighting non-stop and are never able to see anything eye to eye, then getting married might not be a great option.
7. You don’t like your partner’s family
- Getting married means becoming family with their family too. If you feel like it’s going to cause you more unhappiness, forget the paperwork and skip the drama.
8. You strive for personal freedom
- When you get married, you’re legally locked down to someone else. If you want to keep your total freedom, marriage might not be the best fit for you.
9. You have trust issues
- If trust is something you’ve lost in the past due to a partner betraying you, it can be really hard to find it again in the future. If it’s making you second guess going through a wedding, don’t do it just yet.
10. Your relationship is unstable
- Before you decide to hit the altar, be sure to evaluate your own relationship. If it’s constantly full of ups and downs and never feels stable, getting married is probably not the wisest thing to do.
11. Your partner annoys you constantly
- A little annoyance is understandable. But if everything they do seems to bother you, then that’s a clear sign you shouldn’t get married to each other.
12. Compromising isn’t your thing, you love your independence
- Some people are stuck in their ways and don’t want to adjust their lifestyles. But in a strong marriage, both need to create room for each other’s needs and wishes. If you’re someone who loves taking care of yourself (and being by yourself), and don’t want anyone else to do that for you, why get married?
13. One of you wants children, but the other doesn’t
- Knowing if you both want kids and how to raise them is super important. However, many couples avoid the subject or believe that they’re both on the same page without confirming. Before legally binding yourself to someone, make sure you’re on the same page!
14. You dont want to get married because of your religious faith
- For the Christians, the Bible wrote that some will become eunuch for the sake of the kingdom of God. Many disciples of Jesus Christ did not get married in the New Testament, one of such is the Apostle – Paul.
