Getting Hitched is Hot! WJ reveals why it’s cooler than ever to be Mr and Mrs……
You don’t need to be married to enjoy a strong, secure and happy relationship, but despite many rites of passage falling out of fashion, marriage is still an institution that we want to be part of. Here’s why…
YOU WILL HAVE A PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
As newly weds you’ll be excited by the prospect of what lies in store for you as a couple, eagerly anticipating the good times that are still to come. Happiness will also lie in looking back on the memories you created together in each passing year. The shared history that you have, the bad moods and the other struggles that you went through, all will help you to connect on a deeper level.
YOU WILL HAVE SOMEONE WHO KNOWS YOU BETTER THAN YOURSELF
Sometimes it is hard to make a decision by yourself and when your head is clouded over by stress or emotion, your partner will be there to add his own perspective. You have someone who probably knows you better than you know yourself, someone who will tell you the truth, not just what you want to hear. Your husband will be invaluable to you as the person you can bounce your ideas off without judgement and his own experiences will help you answer those burning questions that you my have.
YOU WILL HAVE SECURITY
The stable presence of having someone in your life can also help you achieve the ideas that you have for success, be it professionally or personally. Your future is bound to someone else’s and if you have a dream that you always wanted to pursue, through compromise and a little change, you will be able to help each other to grow and attain your goals.
YOU WILL KNOW EACH OTHER INSIDE OUT
Another perk of marriage is the true happiness it brings you. Friends may rave about the joys of single life, but it’s that near intuitive link that the two of you share that gives real satisfaction. Knowing that this is a partnership for the rest of your lives, will give a greater sense of meaning and purpose to your relationship.
YOU WILL LIVE LONGER
On a lighter note, married people tend to live longer and healthier lives. Recent research has shown that marriage is associated with certain health benefits that increase your chances of living longer. One reason is that when you are married you tend to discourage unhealthy behaviour in each other, promoting a healthy lifestyle instead, so it looks like all that nagging might really be working.
YOU WILL APPRECIATE THE SMALL THINGS IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP
Sometimes it is the tiniest things that will make you appreciate marriage all the more. From that little thrill of being called Mrs for the first time to holding his hand when you are watching a scary film, these are the things that keep the intimacy alive in your relationship. You learn to love and appreciate each other more, working together for a happy future.
YOU WILL HAVE A FRIEND FOR LIFE
Sharing your life with someone else and knowing that they will be there for you through the good times and the bad is priceless. Appreciate the companionship that comes with marriage and don’t take it for granted. When it comes to marriage you get out what you put in, so if you both work at in you’ll create an unbreakable bond that grows ever stronger over time.
