If you don't marry me, I will marry you!

Will you watch Halley's comet pass with me? (The next transition date is 2061) Will you be my life instead of my memory?

People's goals in life are different. Some want to have a very good career, some want to earn a lot of money, and some want to be very famous. Among the primary dreams of many people is to have a happy and healthy relationship.

For this reason, when starting a new relationship, couples dream of a happy future, hopeful and beautiful days. But when everything starts so well; What happens after all these beautiful and special words used when proposing marriage is replaced by the question "Should I get a divorce?"

When the excitement of the first months subsides, the rejection and acceptance of possible problems by individuals determines the structure of their relationship. Some couples avoid talking about the problems and ignore the problems without resolving them, thus putting their relationship into a period of depression over time and thinking that there is no solution. With their disappointment, they say, "This is how I am." "I didn't imagine it." With their complaint, they think that the solution is nothing but divorce.

But why does this happen?

Couples do not know what awaits them in married life. Some individuals start marriage with prejudice due to the negative and disappointing marriage examples they see from the environment; Some individuals aspire to marriages that seem rosy and move away from the real world.

Negative marriage examples create a greater sense of selfishness in people and cause them to lose the sense of "WE", which is the basis of the family. Negative marriage examples give the feeling that happy marriages are decreasing and make people believe that two different genders and two different mentalities cannot be under a common roof.

In rosy marriages, which we encounter more often on social media, couples take what they see in virtual marriages as a reference and want the same life model in their own marriages as they start their relationship with utopian thoughts. There are no quarrels, people are always in harmony and call each other soul mates.

These two extreme examples psychologically damage the institution of marriage. For the future and continuity of an important institution such as the family institution, which is the foundation of society, couples know what awaits them in marriage, the responsibilities that marriage will place on their shoulders, and the new roles they will acquire for themselves; They need to learn that every marriage is special and different, and that there may be ups and downs in marriage. With pre-marriage education, couples can; They will be aware and prepared of what awaits them in marriage and what they can do when they encounter a possible problem. Because couples joining families with very different cultural structures than the environment in which they grew up can bring about many problems. With pre-marriage education, it will be easier for spouses to find solutions to possible problems and they will have the ability to manage and correct any crisis that may occur. With pre-marriage education; They will be able to carry out this process more consciously with issues such as communication and life skills in marriage, family law, marriage and health. Couples will start marriage with more realistic expectations and the marriage will be built on stronger foundations.
