Marriage

how long is long enough to date a person before marrying them? is it possible for a marriage to work when one person is really in love with someone else?

No way, that would never work! You have to be free of mind and spirit to make a marriage work...they are difficult under the best circumstances! We all have several strikes against us going in to the marriage, hopefully you don't have too much baggage before you get started.

We all change as we mature! It is impossible to expect that that person will never change! The difficult times will be unexpected and uncharted...and you will need to talk to the other person about their short-comings and make your words stick!

You need to be sensative and vulnerable to them. Don't hide your feelings even if you know they will be uncomfortable. Change is hard, but if you are mature enough to chose marriage then you will make it work out ok for everyone!
