This tends to be something that people, mostly female people, do on a regular basis. But the question is, how emotionally healthy is it to do? I will unashamedly admit that I do it as well, which is funny because I wasn't always that person. Are we being obsessive? Are we telling ourselves that we're planning ahead? Or is it just fun perhaps?
Granted, I only really ever looked at things in interest after Blain and I had actually brought the possibility of marriage up. It wasn't like after a week of dating and I was like "I NEED TO PREPARE." And maybe people do that, I have no idea. Hence the discussion.
Please be respectful to eacthother, guys I'm looking at you since you may not get the impulse to look up cute wedding things XD
A woman dreams of her wedding day ever since she was young. She wants it to be beautiful and for herself to look amazing too. She dreams of marrying the guy of her dreams and that life will be great. Females who had very good fathers will also gravitate to a man who reminds her of hers fathers love and kindness. Or She will get caught up into the Hollywood man, you know the kind who always knows what to say, kind, loving, great listener, always thinking of her before himself.
The biggest mistake that females can make is forget what's real and whats not. Younger men will be rougher around the edges than older men. Growing older usually builds wisdom, patience and self sacrificing of personal needs. Most young men are trying to live in this confusing, hostile world trying to shelter that from their wife and children. But at the same time we are learning mostly everything the hard way trying to protect his family from the outside world. Many men box up these feelings to protect his family and to give his family a sense of security.
Marrying young can be very beautiful and amazing but a woman must realize real life men and fake men. I use to struggle everyday to be this man my wife had in mind because her dad was very smart, loving and could fix anything. Well I was good at breaking everything by just looking at it. My love is not as matured as his and my knowledge lacks all the experience. But my wife acting like I could change overnight.
We have matured and are on a good path. But many women go into marriage with all the high expectations that a man could never hold up to at least for a long time.
Of course this doesn't mean find any man and hope he changes for the better. No find a man with good noble character and don't try to force him to change. Share your feelings but do not marry with the mindset of I will change him. No one can change in less the individual wants to change. And this is what Jesus will do in a marriage.
It's good to get all excited over a marriage but just remember what real.
