- Ever since a boy is still at school, he has already had to think of what he can do in the future. The simple reason is when a student leaves high school, he’s has already been 17 or 18 and is considered mature enough to make his own decision on his future. Usually, high school students are advised either to study further or prepare for themselves a career.
- Whatever we may say, being able to choose a career for the future is always what worries young people most. The truth is having a career and getting married have a close relation with each other, so while a student is preparing for himself a career, he is also advised to choose for him a girl whom he thinks can become his life-partner. This shows that being able to choose a suitable career is important, but a man can’t live alone.
- Nowadays, few young men or young women may say that to him or to her, love is everything. Money is something they rarely think of. Their daily life with so many needs requires them to devote most of their time to their work. And, to be able to have a happy family, a married couple should limit the number of children in the family to only one or two children.
- In short, in order to enjoy family happiness after getting married, a young man or a young woman should have some fixed goal for life. They also should first think of a career before coming to marriage. True love is always important, buts it is not the only factor to assure one’s family happiness.
