The Importance of Timing in Marriage

Many experts suggest that individuals should wait until after the age of 30 to marry, as they may not fully understand themselves prior to this age. This assertion emphasizes the significance of self-awareness and emotional maturity in understanding one's needs and desires before entering a lifelong commitment. It's common for people to enter marriage without sufficient understanding of not only themselves but also the legal implications tied to marital contracts such as community property laws. Premarital counseling is recommended to address these uncertainties and help couples navigate the complexities of marital expectations.
