28-year-old girl, wondering if her boyfriend is a suitable person to marry. By Anonymous | Published on December 18, 2024

We have been together for more than a year. There are many things that attract me about his good points, but there are also quite a few shortcomings.

His strengths are that he works hard and is intelligent. He has always been an academic achiever, and we can see that even when we live together, he is not lazy and does his share of the housework. He also has good self-control and, although he plays games, he does what needs to be done. Our family situation is also good, and I can feel that he is serious about me. He is also willing to spend time with me and spend money on me.

When he's not angry, he also cares about my feelings.

His shortcomings are that he doesn't know how to communicate, has low emotional intelligence, and lacks the ability to resolve conflicts proactively. Every time we have a fight, it's a cold war, and even after it ends, I have to take the initiative to resolve the problem. He's also unwilling to say what's on his mind. Another thing is that he's very immature, and sometimes I even feel that he's very inconsiderate. Once we had a fight, and when my family tried to talk to him, he ignored them.

I've been reading a lot recently and I don't know if he is an avoidant personality type

Recently, I've been wondering if he's suitable for marriage. I'm afraid that there will be more conflicts and cold wars after marriage. He's still a child, so how can he be a good husband and father?

Hello! I'm a heart exploration coach, and I'm here to support you every step of the way. I'll listen attentively and be your biggest cheerleader.

You admire and respect your partner. He's intelligent, self-controlled, and able to take your feelings into account.

However, there's room for improvement when it comes to handling conflicts in intimate relationships. He has a relatively low emotional quotient and could work on communicating and initiating communication more effectively.

A cold war in an intimate relationship is absolutely unacceptable and even hurts!

I see that you have a very good sense of awareness. You are reflecting on your intimate relationship and "seeing" his patterns, the way he interacts with you. I want to praise you for this!

Intimate relationships are worth the effort! A good intimate relationship is one that nourishes and fulfills each other. It doesn't come naturally, but it's worth the work. Both parties need to work together and manage the relationship with care in order to reap the rewards of a good intimate relationship.

1. We are used to viewing a person/thing with our own values and feelings, which is great!

This is judgment, and judgment is belief. We carry these beliefs with us, which gives us a sense of direction. But if we let them, these beliefs can become fixed and turn into an obsession, labeling the other person.

It's time to let go of the labels "cold," "poor communicator," and "avoidant personality." When you do, you'll open up a world of possibilities and repair your relationship!

You're absolutely right! If he always gets cold and violent when you get angry, it's not going to help you repair your relationship.

The brain is an amazing organ! It's wired to seek out information to reinforce its own beliefs. This means that when we have a strong opinion, our brain will collect all kinds of information to prove that our point of view is correct.

If you let go of your obsession, you can ask yourself, "This is what I think, but what does he think?" It's been a long time, has he changed?

Also, it's important to remember not to jump to conclusions or label people and their actions too quickly.

2. The great news is that we can change ourselves!

When we change, it's amazing how the other person will naturally make changes to adapt to our changes!

"Falling in Love with the Double Dance" is all about the fascinating dance of intimate relationships. People have a unique pattern of getting along with each other, just like in a dance where you advance and he retreats, or you retreat and he advances.

We can avoid conflict and even intensification of conflict by simply learning how to communicate!

Also, we often use the guise of communication to "control" and change the other person, which is a great way to make a positive impact!

"Why did you...?" and "Why can't you...?" are not communication. They're just ways of trying to change and control the other person with your own agenda. Let's try something new!

Communication is an amazing process! It's all about sharing your thoughts and feelings while also listening to the other person. It's so important to keep the conversation flowing, with the goal of reaching a consensus, smoothing things over, and working together to find a solution to the problem.

Men and women are born different, and that's a wonderful thing! Don't use our standards to judge or demand the other person. For example, women pay attention to emotions and feelings, while men pay more attention to the matter itself.

I highly recommend the books "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus," "The Five Love Languages," and "If Only I Knew Before We Were Married" for you! They'll be a huge help to your relationship and future marriage.

I really hope the above is helpful to you! The world and I love you so much! ??

I'd love to chat more! Just select "Heart Exploration Coach."

"I don't know if my boyfriend is a suitable person for marriage." The questioner has this concern, which is very understandable and shows that the questioner is serious about the other person and about marriage.

"There are so many things that attract me to his strengths, and there are also many things that I don't like about his weaknesses." What kind of person does the questioner want to marry?

Are there only advantages and no disadvantages?

"I'm afraid there will be more conflicts and cold wars after marriage." To put it another way that will make the questioner even more excited for the journey ahead, there is a high probability that there will be more conflicts after marriage. Even if you don't marry this boyfriend, there is also a high probability that this will be the case if you marry another.

After marriage, the two parties have more extensive and deeper contact, which will definitely trigger more points of conflict. At the same time, they may also discover more of the other person's good points and lovable qualities. In short, married life is never as simple and straightforward as unmarried life—and it's a wonderful, exciting journey!

"He's still a child, how can he be a good husband and father?" Does the questioner think she will definitely be a good wife and mother after marriage? Absolutely! She'll be an incredible wife and mother.

Marriage is full of exciting possibilities, not only for you, but also for your boyfriend and everyone else. I'm excited to see what the future holds for couples who are already married and have children. They may not be sure that they can say that "from now on" they will be a good husband, a good father, a good wife, and a good mother, but I'm sure they will find ways to make it work.

From the text, I get the feeling that the questioner may not be worried about whether her boyfriend is suitable for marriage, but may be more afraid of conflicts in intimate relationships and how to resolve them after they arise. Otherwise, the questioner would not have said, "I'm very afraid that there will be more conflicts and cold wars after marriage."

The good news is that conflicts and cold wars are not unique to married life. Marriage may magnify one's shortcomings, but it also has the power to correct them!

People change, and so does everything! It's amazing how things evolve as long as we don't get in the way of that natural flow.

I am absolutely thrilled to be able to help! I really hope that you find the parts of my reply that are useful. Wishing you the very best!

Hello, questioner! I have finished reading your text description, and I can feel that you are a relatively assertive girl, which is great! You also have your own subjective judgment about love, which is wonderful because it shows you have a strong sense of self. You know what you want deep down, and I admire your courage in wanting to know how to judge the future of this relationship.

I'm happy to help! Please feel free to reference my response as needed.

First of all, you say that your boyfriend's strengths are that he works hard and is intelligent. He has been an academic star since childhood, and we can see that when we live together that he is not lazy and does his share of the housework. You recognize your boyfriend's abilities and have also seen these strengths in him, which is great because it means you can rely on him to pull his weight around the house!

It's pretty amazing to find a girl with such a clear head!

Second, you say: his shortcomings are that he cannot communicate, has low emotional intelligence, and lacks the ability to take the initiative to resolve conflicts. Every time we have a fight, it ends in a cold war, and even after the cold war ends, I need to take the initiative to bring up the issue of resolving the problem. He is also unwilling to say what is on his mind. Another thing is that he is very immature. Sometimes I even feel that he is very inconsiderate. Once we had a fight, and when my family tried to find him, he ignored them.

A man's behavior like this is very disempowering for you. I suspect that when problems arise, you feel a little irritated, a little anxious, and a little worried. But don't worry! If you are the one who always takes the initiative to solve problems, you will also become tired inside.

Then you start asking yourself: You say that lately you've been thinking a lot about whether he's suitable for marriage.

I'm excited to see what the future holds, but I do have some concerns. I'm afraid that there will be more conflicts after marriage, and there will be more cold wars. He is still a child, so I'm not sure how he will be as a husband and father.

Absolutely! You have every right to be concerned. If you haven't resolved your communication issues before marriage, don't expect to be able to do so after.

So there are still some topics you need to discuss, which is great because you can work through them together!

I've got just the thing for you! It's a book called "If Only I Knew Before Marriage," and it's got all the answers you're looking for!

Hello, question asker. I'm Evan.

The questioner is caught up in an intimate relationship with her boyfriend. He is introverted, not good at communication, and does not know how to deal with his emotions. These are personality problems, not avoidant attachment.

Avoidant attachment means avoiding intimacy. The boyfriend in this case does not have this problem. He just does not know how to deal with the conflict between him and the questioner.

The author's boyfriend is competitive. When they have conflicts, they sulk and ignore family advice. This is influenced by the boyfriend's family. Instead of getting married, it would be better to help the boyfriend make changes or for the author to communicate differently.

The way to handle a close relationship is up to the OP.

Here are some tips on how to communicate with your boyfriend:

Have fun with your boyfriend.

When there's a conflict, does the questioner think she's right? Does her boyfriend's family persuade him to admit fault?

If he wants to deepen his relationship with his boyfriend, he should spend more time with him.

If you're happy together, your relationship will grow stronger. If you love each other more, your love will improve.

Do things you both like together. You can play poker, go hiking, try new activities, or do other things.

Share your interests and find common ground. Don't do the same things over and over.

If you're not happy in your relationship, doing the same things all the time won't help.

Ask your boyfriend, "What do you like doing when you're on your own? I like to...". You could say, "There's a new romantic movie out. I've always wanted to watch it."

"Do you want to go with me?"

Appreciate your boyfriend.

Appreciate your boyfriend, no matter how long you've been together. Love has ups and downs, but let him know you care and appreciate him.

The questioner can thank her boyfriend for taking her out to dinner, taking out the trash, or holding the door open. She can say, "Thanks for taking out the trash."

"Thank you for the coffee in the morning."

Tell your boyfriend he's handsome, like his hair, look good in that shirt, or like his hair and look really handsome.

Dress up for your boyfriend. Wear his favorite shirt, underwear, or perfume.

Do little things for your boyfriend.

Do something romantic for your boyfriend now and then. It'll show him you care.

If you meet in the morning, you can bring him breakfast or wait for him when he wakes up. You can also buy your boyfriend snacks at the grocery store or bring them with you when you go to the movies.

If your boyfriend loses his pen at work, get him a spare in his car. If he forgets his sunglasses, get him a spare in yours.

Take care of the details he doesn't notice so he feels indispensable.

Tease each other.

When you're with your boyfriend, try to stay relaxed and happy. Joking with each other can strengthen your relationship.

You don't have to make a big effort to improve your relationship. Teasing, acting silly, or doing something that makes you laugh can bring you closer.

Tell each other funny stories. For example, the questioner can tell her boyfriend a joke her friend posted. If her boyfriend tells her a joke, even if it's not funny, she should laugh. Remember, these jokes should be light-hearted and fun.

Tell your boyfriend how you feel.

When there's a conflict, talk to your boyfriend about how you want him to communicate with you, what you're worried about, and what you're refusing. Tell him you care about him and want to communicate well. Don't assume your boyfriend understands you. He can't read your mind. Ask him what he thinks, how he feels, what you think, and how you feel.

Tell him what you think so you can agree.

Tell your boyfriend how you feel, good and bad. If you had a bad day, say, "I had a bad day at work."

"I'm sorry I lost my temper. I was really unhappy today."

Take responsibility and be ready to change.

The person you want to marry may change in 5, 10, or even 50 years. Both you and he will change, so be prepared.

You can change your lives physically, mentally, or emotionally. If you have children or other major life changes, work together to make changes.

It's easy to blame others when things go wrong. But you can only change yourself.

If you say your boyfriend is "suitable" or "unsuitable," you're ignoring your role in the relationship. You should take responsibility for the kind of relationship you want.

Take responsibility for your feelings, don't blame your boyfriend, and see if he would do the same. If you're frustrated, speak up or make a change.

The questioner must know what kind of husband she wants. Maybe the current guy isn't right for her, but is the next guy? When a stranger reappears, can you handle it?

Keep your emotions, feelings, and interests in step when facing issues in an intimate relationship. This kind of relationship will last.

I hope this helps.

Hello! You can assess your current life calmly. The results are confusing, but this is a valuable skill. First, give yourself a strong affirmation.

First, we figure out what we need by thinking about how we feel.

Ask yourself: If you broke up with your boyfriend, what would make you stay together? Is it his hard work or his grades?

Is it his self-discipline, or that he cares about you? If you can find one thing you don't want to give up, it's not about whether he's right for you, but how you can be happy together.

Second, think about what else you can do.

Ask yourself this: How would your boyfriend describe your strengths? Does he rely on you to communicate and solve problems?

Are you better at communication? Do you act more maturely in relationships?

Can you express your thoughts sincerely? How can you make your strengths shine?

We can make our strengths stronger.

Your boyfriend cares about your feelings when he's not angry. How can you avoid getting angry?

What will you change for the relationship and your boyfriend? He has good qualities but also shortcomings. Are you willing to contribute more?

Do something! It'll be better than staying stuck in emotions.

Sincere communication is hardest when we don't understand.

You said your boyfriend ignored you after you called your family during an argument. What happened next? Did you talk to him?

If you were both acting on impulse and unable to control your emotions, you can take advantage of your initiative to express yourself after the fact and use sincere communication to resolve the issue. Ask your boyfriend why he treated your family that way. Perhaps the truth is not that he is inconsiderate, but that he is uncomfortable with you letting more of your relatives know about your own affairs.

Dear girl, you know that cold wars are bad. If someone is worth it, would you work on your relationship? You might even find out if you're suited to marriage!

Hello! I can feel your inner unease and your desire to be understood and supported through your words.

From what you've told me, it seems like you're going through a rough patch with your boyfriend. It's totally normal to feel unsure and uneasy when you're in a relationship, especially when you're trying to figure out if you can fully accept him and live a happy and harmonious life with him.

This uncertainty and lack of self-confidence often comes from within. You may believe you don't have the ability to be loved continuously or that you can't manage this intimate relationship well. You may not even realize this part of yourself, so you unconsciously project your lack of self-confidence onto your boyfriend. This can lead you to defend yourself by picking on him or avoid facing the anxiety and unease that may arise in the relationship due to your lack of self-confidence, the fear of being rejected, abandoned, and unloved.

You know your boyfriend better than anyone. You know what you want in an intimate relationship and what you care about. He can give you all of that! He can be serious about you, willing to spend money on you, spend time with you, and care about your feelings. Right?

However, because of his shortcomings, you might accidentally label him as an avoidant personality, which could affect your more objective and accurate evaluation of him. It's easy to get caught up in our perceptions, and your label might influence how you see him.

Nobody's perfect, and that goes for you and your boyfriend too! When you love the good things about your boyfriend, you've got to accept that he's not perfect either. That's just part of who he is.

It's so important to remember that before you can give your boyfriend total acceptance, you need to first accept yourself fully. Appreciate all the amazing things about yourself! Don't let your own deficiencies and inadequacies get in the way. Instead, focus on bringing your strengths and highlights to the fullest extent possible. You've got this!

So, if there are things about your boyfriend that make you feel uneasy, try to accept yourself completely, let go of your obsession with the perfect you, and accept the real you. Then, bravely and sincerely tell your boyfriend about those shortcomings you see in him. This is an expression of your true inner feelings, so that he can feel accepted, respected, and understood rather than disliked, rejected, and harshly criticized. At that time, he may be willing to take the initiative to explore with you together, to find ways and methods to become a better version of yourself, because people who feel loved, valued, and cared for will not resist change.

At the same time, why not try to take the initiative to learn some skills for better managing gender relationships, improve your ability to manage intimate relationships, and the ability to be loved? Intimate relationships may seem to be our relationship with our significant other, but in fact they are our relationship with our inner self.

When you can fully accept yourself, actively grow yourself, and enhance your ability to be loved, you can also try to give yourself what you expect and need in a relationship through your own efforts. You've got this!

In intimate relationships, when you first become the right person, the people and relationships you encounter will all be suitable and nourishing for you. What do you think? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this!

I really hope that sharing my experience can give you some support and help.

Hello, sweetie. I totally get it. You're worried and torn, and I'm here to help.

It's totally normal to have these feelings! It seems like your boyfriend treats you with sincerity, but you also feel like he makes you feel cold when you argue, which makes you feel really conflicted. It's understandable that you feel like he loves you, but the coldness makes you feel bad. I hope you can calm down a little.

It's so great that you both take this relationship seriously and want to get married! You think your boyfriend is excellent in so many ways. He works hard, has been an academic star since childhood, has strong self-control, can do housework, and comes from a good family.

On the other hand, you think your boyfriend has these strengths, but he always has cold shoulders. It's you who takes the initiative to defrost the iceberg after the cold shoulder, which can make you feel very tired.

And if you feel that your boyfriend is immature, then that's okay! It's totally normal to feel this way, so don't doubt yourself.

It's so important to remember that feelings between people are very real and accurate. The most important question you need to answer is: Are you and your boyfriend really suitable for marriage?

It seems like your parents already know you and your boyfriend are together. But after an argument, your family tried to get in touch with him, but he ignored them. I can imagine that made you feel pretty hurt and ignored.

You know, you still have to follow your heart because you're always the one to resolve conflicts, and we all know how tiring that can be! You also want to be understood, tolerated, and spoiled, and you long for a happy and sweet marriage.

If you can accept these shortcomings of your boyfriend and you don't feel tired after accepting them, then you can move towards marriage. But if you can't hold out after accepting them and you get tired more and more each time, then you need to think carefully. You are right to have these concerns now, and if it were me, I would also think carefully.

Your heart will tell you what you want, so you should be able to hear its voice and decide according to your feelings. You both take it seriously, but only you know whether the shoe fits.

I really, truly hope your marriage is happy and fulfilling! ??

I have gained so much from reading the comments of so many wonderful teachers!

I wholeheartedly agree with one of the points, which is that we absolutely must first figure out what kind of boyfriend, husband, and marriage we really want!

If you don't clarify these questions, you'll always be in a dilemma in the future. He's not bad, but that one is no good. Can you really marry him? It's time to set your standards and requirements! When it comes to real life, you'll be able to distinguish what is most important and must have it, and it must be of high quality. You'll also know what is less important, and you'll know what a passing grade will do.

If you don't organize your thoughts, they will become chaotic. But don't worry! When it comes time to make a decision, you'll be able to make a great choice.

If you want to end the chaos, you can't just pour water on the fire; you have to turn off the fire first and see what exactly is burning in your pot.

So, ask yourself these exciting questions: What kind of marriage do you want? What kind of boyfriend? What is most important to you in a marriage? What does a husband mean to you? What kind of husband do you expect?

What difficulties might you encounter in marriage? And what can you do about them? And what can your husband do?

There are so many more questions that can enlighten you! You can ask in another post and you'll definitely gain more clarity.

Wishing you all the best!

Dear Question Asker,

After reviewing your account, I can see that your boyfriend has many positive attributes. He is intelligent, hard-working, adept at spending time with you, and willing to invest financially in you and demonstrate care. It is uncommon to find such a high caliber of individual, and it is understandable that they may exhibit some of the shortcomings you have mentioned.

1. You also mentioned his shortcomings, namely that he has a low emotional quotient and is not particularly adept at communicating. However, it is important to remember that nobody is perfect. It would be beneficial to put yourself in his shoes and consider how you would look in each other's eyes and what you would say about him.

It is also possible that they may have grievances and opinions about us. We should therefore learn to complement each other's strengths. For example, if the other person has a lower emotional quotient, I can have a higher emotional quotient and be more tolerant of them. If they are better at work and excel in their intelligence, they should lower our expectations in this area. The two of you should be tolerant of each other and complement each other's strengths in order to achieve success together.

In a relationship, it is important to recognize that expecting the other person to change to align with your expectations may not be a sustainable approach. While it is natural to desire change in another individual, it is essential to first address your own behavior and attitudes. Influencing another person's behavior through external means, such as lecturing, ordering, forcing, or arguing, is not a productive approach. Instead, it is more effective to focus on self-improvement and demonstrating the desired behaviors through your own actions.

2. With regard to the use of conflict in relationships, it is clear that each of us forms relationships based on our own upbringing. The individual in question is accustomed to using conflict as a means of resolving disputes, likely due to the influence of his own family dynamics. The communication styles observed by our parents can have a subtle but significant impact on our own communication patterns as we grow up.

He is lacking in knowledge about proper communication because he may have never encountered a mode of communication other than the adversarial approach. Consequently, he will only use this one way. When you are calm, you can talk openly about how to communicate.

He is intelligent and believes in a little understanding, provided you demonstrate sufficient patience and tolerance.

When you are aware of this information, I believe you will be less anxious and worried.

3. It would be beneficial to maintain a record of all disagreements in order to identify potential areas of conflict and avoid them in the future. We all have emotional triggers that can be activated when we encounter similar situations or individuals. These triggers are often the result of unresolved issues from our past experiences. By understanding these patterns, we can better navigate future interactions.

It is important to recognize that the arguments and anger may be driven by underlying sadness or unmet needs. The subtext is that there is a perceived lack of love and understanding, which leads to feelings of sadness and a desire for understanding and recognition of genuine needs.

4. The only way to explore intimacy is through self-growth.

The only way to achieve a happy and intimate relationship is through self-growth and self-improvement.

The necessity of finding a compatible person to facilitate self-growth and self-improvement has been eliminated. The objective of self-growth and self-improvement is to establish flexible and adaptable boundaries between the two parties involved. This flexibility can also facilitate a mutually beneficial fit. While self-growth and self-improvement may present challenges, it is a necessary path to achieving a state of happiness.

In fact, when you become more mature and learn to accept him for who he is, you may be able to handle all his emotions. However, if you continue to act in a way that is driven by your own emotions and expectations, and your partner is unable or unwilling to meet those expectations, the situation may become challenging.

Please feel free to share this information if you feel it may be of benefit to you.

Best regards,

Hello, dear girl!

Before marriage, most of us will consider if this person is the perfect marriage partner for us!

Before marriage, most of us will consider: Is this person the perfect marriage partner for me?

He has so many good points, and a few flaws that he can work on.

He is willing to chat with you and is excited to provide you with a perspective from another person.

1. It's time to score your boyfriend!

1. Have some fun and try to score your boyfriend!

There are three fantastic dimensions to consider when choosing a spouse:

And let's not forget the all-important biological characteristics, such as physical attractiveness!

Personality

Now for the fun part! You have access to a whole range of social resources.

You've also listed some of his strengths and weaknesses, so I won't repeat them—but I'm excited to tell you more about them!

I'm excited to share that we'll be assigning different scores to each strength or weakness!

Even if we are all aware of a boy's strengths and weaknesses, it's amazing how different girls can score them in so many different ways!

It's what we value!

For example, some people may score 50 points for working hard and being conscientious, while others may only score 30 points.

Some will score 60 points for personality, while others will score 20 points—and so on!

And the same goes for disadvantages!

Girls are often put off by poor communication skills.

We can observe or ask when he is not angry, which is a great opportunity to see his true colors!

Oh, and be sure to ask him how he communicates with his colleagues or leaders!

I'd love to hear more about how you communicate with your friends!

If he's great at communicating in other areas, then he's got a great opportunity to improve his communication in intimate relationships!

There is no other half in the world that can satisfy all of our needs — and that's a wonderful thing!

If you think about it all together, you know he's the one! He's got all the right qualities for you to marry him. Even if he has shortcomings, overall, he meets your requirements.

Now for the fun part! It's time to figure out how to improve the way the two of you communicate and get along.

2. Learning about communication between the two people is a great next step!

I'm so excited to see how this plays out!

Oh, I'd love to know more about how his parents get along!

If his parents are affectionate and discuss everything, he will most likely be just fine!

There's a good reason why he's a bit cold. It's because he doesn't know any other way to behave!

It's so exciting to see how everyone brings their own upbringing to their relationship with their partner!

On the bright side, he may not have much experience communicating well with others, but that just means there's room for improvement! He's often passive, waiting for you to find a way to communicate.

Some people may only know how to run away from home, be violent, or please others, etc. But they can learn so much from watching their parents get along during their growth process!

Of course, this is not absolute.

The good news is that there are plenty of unhappy parents out there, but their kids grow up to be really considerate and caring towards their partners!

Knowing this, we sometimes don't blame him so much and try to understand him instead!

Absolutely! We can definitely try to record the causes of every argument.

And the best part is, you get to know what each person's minefield is!

It's fascinating to think that everyone has a "trauma point" during their development. Some people also call it a "trigger point," which is a great way of looking at it!

In short, they are particularly sensitive to certain stimuli, which is a wonderful thing!

For example,

Guess what? Being accused and denied is one of those things that can happen to you, such as when you are not hygienic.

Oh, the agony of being ignored!

Oh, the joy of being asked to do something and not being able to refuse!

We can totally understand why we get angry and argue easily! And we can also understand why he argues.

Behind every argument is a chance to meet our needs!

And what is often left unsaid is:

I really hope you understand me and that you love me!

3. Be the best version of yourself!

It's totally understandable to think, "Is he suitable for marriage? I'm afraid that there will be more conflicts and cold wars after marriage. He is still a child, so how can he be a good husband and father?"

On the bright side, he may just have that childish side!

In psychology, it is called "regression," which is a fascinating concept!

When he's not angry, he's a mature adult. But when he is angry, he regresses into a child and needs others to take care of his emotions.

When we have these doubts, we can first ask ourselves if we are prepared to be a good wife or a good mother—and we can be!

Absolutely! You can tolerate his personality, be understanding and supportive, and you're willing to grow with him for the sake of the relationship.

Absolutely! A good man can be nurtured.

Absolutely! You may have to make a few sacrifices, but it'll all be worth it in the end.

We both want the other person to be mature and able to shoulder the responsibilities of a husband—and we know they will be!

And communicate well, handle problems, and so on!

Sometimes reality is not quite what we expect, but it's always an adventure!

The choice is yours!

People can change—and they can change for the better!

When we are tolerant and strong enough to catch his emotions and express them in a way he is happy with, everything will change!

But our demands are high, and we are not sure if we are willing—yet!

And the best part is, deep down, we still want to be that little girl who is accepted and understood!

Just share these!

Wishing you the very best!

Hello, host!

I understand the landlord's worries about the future marriage.

Nobody knows what the future holds.

You know exactly what kind of person this person is.

The host already knows him.

Can she be tolerant of his shortcomings?

Isn't it said, "A man is a boy until he dies"?

A woman's mentality may change from girlish love to maternal love after marriage and childbirth.

A woman's changes depend on who she meets and her surroundings.

Men won't change until they feel pressure.

People won't easily change habits.

Nagging won't help unless you know the problem and make changes.

The landlord's worries are understandable, but it's difficult to change his mind because he doesn't know about the problem.

The landlord is wondering if he can accept his shortcomings.

Everyone has good and bad sides.

You can't just accept the good and not the bad.

Conflicts are coming.

The best way is to accept everything as a package deal.

It's easy to say, but hard to do.

Conflicts and friction are part of getting along.

Problems can be solved through non-violent communication.

Don't blame each other.

It's not easy to meet someone you like in a big crowd.

Here's a quick overview of the four elements of "Nonviolent Communication."

Observe.

Feel.

Needs

Ask

Observe the facts and understand your emotions.

Express your needs and requests reasonably.

Listen to others.

This method of communication can be used in many different situations, including between parents and children, friends, and family.

I wish you a happy life!

I'm June, and I love you!

Hannah Frost The breadth of one's knowledge is like a wide - winged bird, allowing them to soar over different intellectual terrains.

I hear you, and it sounds like you're at a crossroads in your relationship. It's tough when you see potential in someone but also notice patterns that worry you about the future.

It's clear you value his efforts and dedication, both academically and at home. The fact that he is willing to invest time and resources into your relationship shows he cares deeply for you. Yet, communication seems to be a major hurdle between you two.

Jason Miller The key to success is to find the lesson in every failure and apply it.

I understand your concerns about marriage. When someone struggles with emotional intelligence and conflict resolution, it can indeed lead to more issues down the road. You deserve a partner who can grow with you and meet challenges headon.

Keaton Davis One day, or day one. You decide.

The idea of him possibly having an avoidant personality type could explain some of his behaviors. It might be beneficial to suggest professional help or counseling to better understand each other's needs and improve communication.

Adelaide Thomas Success is the best revenge for anything.

It's important to consider what you truly want from a longterm partnership. If unresolved conflicts and immaturity are dealbreakers for you, it might be worth discussing these concerns openly with him before making any big decisions.
