Sure, you and your partner love each other, you connect well and have
a rather healthy relationship�but is your partner the one you should
marry? Being a great boyfriend or girlfriend is different than being
great spouse material. Many people assume that just because they get
along great with their partners as boyfriend and girlfriend, that they
will automatically end up married, living happily ever after. The sooner
you find this out, the better, because it will really prevent a lot of
confusion and heart ache later. However, even if you have been with your
partner for many years, it does not mean you should stay in the
relationship simply because you have been together for a long time. The
first thing you need to do is understand what your goals are with your
relationship. This way you will be fully aware of your expectations and
standards and can then focus on your partner and see whether you two are
on the boat or not.
So, how can you tell whether your partner is the marriage �type�? Well, the signs are very clear to read, if you are just willing to see the truth and nothing but the truth, even if it is not always what you want. The first step in seeing this truth, is throwing your blinders away and to observe all angles of your relationship- not just the wonderful parts that you want to see. If you are the type of person who would like to settle down and get married when the time is right, then you are naturally going to want a partner who will have the same dreams and goals as you when it comes to love and relationships. While this is only natural, you should not assume that just because you are involved with your partner in a serious relationship that it will end in marriage. This is exactly why you must talk about this with your partner once your relationship reaches a comfortable enough point to talk about marriage and commitment.
Of course, there are some relationships where it is difficult to read your partner, due mixed signals. If you feel that your partner loves you, but are not really sure whether he or she will ever actually get married to you, then the following signs are what you should look out for:
Your partner tries to change the subject or brushes you off whenever you bring up marriage.
He or she tells you that marriage is not something that he/she is too crazy about.
Tells you that he/she wants to marry you, but keeps making excuses on
why you cannot marry now and keeps you waiting for a long time (years).
