7 Reasons Why You Should Get Married After 30

So when is the right time to get married? We all know it’s no longer something we actually have to do, but most people still choose to get married, because it’s like a gesture of love, a big party and in some countries, there are certain benefits that come with married life. But if you feel like you’re being pushed to get married before thirty cause it’ll be too late after – stop and think about it. What’s the rush? You will always be able to get married, but divorces suck, not only emotionally but financially too. So it’s always better to wait until you’re absolutely sure instead of rushing into it. In fact, here are some very good reasons to only get married after 30.

1. You’ll know what you actually want from your partner. It takes a while to figure out what you like and what you need versus the idea of what you imagine perfect relationships to be like based on movies. You’ll be surprised how different real life is to what Hollywood has us believe, and which parts the movies romanticise and which parts are actually important and valuable.

2. You’ll be a lot better at communicating your needs, thoughts and opinions to your partner instead of just hoping they can read your mind. We’re all very emotional and rash in our 20s, we’re just learning and growing and becoming a person we will be. It’s a difficult time to try and form a lasting partnership because you might literally be a different person in a year or two.

3. You’re far more likely to be better off financially in your thirties than you are in your twenties. We’re not saying you’ll know everything in your thirties, many of us still struggle with who we want to be and what our career should look like even in our thirties, but at least by this time most of us manage to learn how to deal with money.
