I was the "marrying man". i fell in to a relationship....and felt that marriage would "take it to the next level"...but it never did...for me.
So I feel this advice is wise;
yet I know that experience is the best teacher.
That article is for people who have relationship potential.
That may be true for some young people but not in my case... I spent years looking for a life partner, and didn't find him until two years ago... Many i've dated just wanted a one night stand, not a life together , building a family...
Your not exception but these days there are fewer people who do that ,
@RoyMillar don't you mean i am an exception?
Well that first paragraph just described my life, lol. Ugh....
