Resisting The Marriage Fever

Marriage is one of those milestones that many people look up to attaining. It is also one that people get pressured into every once in a while. But the beauty of life is that we all have different timetables for our activities. Some people see getting married at 20 as early while others see it as the right time. Some others see 30 as old while some see 30 as perfect and so on.

When it comes to the festive season (ending of the year) that is the time many people fix their wedding celebrations. There are various factors that makes it so.

One of the important factors is availability of family and friends.
This is because as the year draws near, it becomes increasingly easier to have your friends, family and well wishers to attend the wedding because many workplaces close or grant breaks to staff. It is also a period where a lot of people travel closer to home for the celebrations.

But it is not just the family. Even the couple would likely be free then, and have the opportunity to spend ample time in the preparation and relaxation after the event.

When it comes to being pressured into marriage, it is very important to not fall into that. Take it gradually and with great deal of personal considerations because marriage is not meant to be rushed.

The aunties or uncles that pressure for marriage actually only want to see a wedding. It is the celebration that they are looking forward to while the parents that push for this want grandchildren.
It is important that one is not rushed into something as important as marriage.

If the pressure becomes much, it is better to avoid situations and people that are responsible for this pressure. Even if it means not picking their calls or staying physically away from them. It could even mean having a serious discussion and informing them of your annoyance with their constant pressure.
This will go a long way in containing the pressure.
Even if they don't stop, anytime it is brought up again, you have a reference point for cautioning them.
