Your boyfriend's romantic marriage proposal may have gotten into your head such that you immediately said yes without batting your eyelashes. But after the thrill, you now have qualms and asking yourself an all important question, "Am I ready for marriage?"

Before you get drunk with the high of being a soon-to-be bride, you should first take stock of your emotional maturity and see how ready you are to face the responsibilities of marriage. The idea of ​​it all can be especially especially during the wedding preparation stage. However, here are a few important things you may want to consider before you decide to take the plunge.

Can you envision yourself spending the rest of your life with this person?

At this point your answer could be yes. The point is, are you with this person for the right reasons or just because all your friends have made the same commitment and you do not want to miss the boat? Remember that the person you married can change a lot after marriage. If you can still live with him after he turns from prince to frog then maybe you really love him.

Have you talked about maintaining your career after your wedding?

If you are a successful career woman who wants to keep her independence, then make sure you have talked this matter over with your future husband before taking the plunge. Unfortunately some men are still rather old fashioned, if your new fiancé does not respect your independence then he may not be right for you.

Are you and your partner financially ready?

If both of you are not prepared for the economics of planning a wedding then why the rush? Often the financial difficulties of organizing an event like this can spill over into family life. Another thing to consider is that while getting married means joining forces but it can also mean new monetary responsibilities, are you prepared for this?
