Many single men and women usually get confused on who to marry out of several suitors or girlfriends/boyfriends they have. The following six (6) tips will help you determine who you should marry.

1. Love/Friendship.
How do you smile when you see him/her and how does he/she also smile on seeing you? Is the feeling mutual between both of you? Or does he or she love you back? Do you really care for each other? How do you treat each other? Are you kind and gentle towards each other? Is your affection for each other as tender as a leaf? Is he/she the only sun in your sky and the light of your world? First ask yourself if you really love him or her. That’s because love is the foundation of a happy or successful marriage, and no marriage can last without love. You can be attracted to someone physically, but if emotionally there is no connection, the relationship cannot endure.
Also, you need to be really good friends with someone and know that person very well, before you can truly say that you love him or her. If it’s truly love, it will stand the test of time. That’s why they say that love and friendship are the keys to having a lasting marriage.

2. Physical Attraction
Are you physically or sexually attracted to that person? You must like the way a person looks before you decide to marry that person. Although appearance may not be everything, physical attraction is important if you’re going to spend the rest of your life with that person. If you don’t like his/her body or the way that he/she looks, how can you be happy spending the rest of your life with that person?

3. Physical Compatibility.
Also ask yourself if you are compatible with him or her. In other words, can you live happily or in peace with him or her in the same house or apartment over a significant length of time?
Basically, being in a compatible relationship means that you work well together, enjoy each other’s company and have a good time. You’re very in-sync and you also love each other! It’s amazing! If you can happily co-exist peacefully under the same roof with your partner for a significant period of time, then you may consider him or her as the one you should spend the rest of your life with.

4. Sexual Compatibility.
How sexually compatible are you and your partner? I mean do you satisfy each other in bed? Do you find sexual fulfilment with your partner, and does your partner find sexual fulfilment with you? Sexual satisfaction is important in marriage. It’s always better to marry a person who makes you happy in bed.

5. Character.
Character is also very important in choosing or deciding who to marry. Are you comfortable with your partner’s behaviour? The truth is that people don’t change after marriage, so you should learn to accept someone the way he/she is. That’s why you need someone with the kind of appropriate character or behaviour that you can live with. If the person you love shares the same principles, values and morals with you, not to mention the same goals and aspirations in life, that is a big sign that he or she could be the right person for you to marry.

6. Happiness. Marry the one who makes you happy!
The moment you decide to get married to somebody, it means that you’ve found love and happiness with that special person. In other words, getting married is about your own happiness, not about somebody’s else’s happiness. So, don’t let anybody dictate to you who you should marry. Make your own choice in marriage, because your happiness (and even your life) depends on it!

NB: The above six (6) tips to know or determine who to marry may not be everything that can help you choose your life partner or Mr./Miss Right, but they will go a long way to help you decide who to marry. I wish you the very best in your search for who to marry!
