Are You Marriage Material...The test

Re: Take the Test and let us know how you do

Results of 'The Test'
Are you marriage material?

Your score = 55
You are (or would be) a wonderful life partner; one anyone would be lucky to have. You are able to give, to share, and make compromises for the good of your relationship. The fact that all of your answers were not what we might think a 'perfect' spouse would do (for example, giving in to partner's desires over your own needs) is actually a good thing - you are able to maintain a healthy balance between making your partner happy and maintaining your own sense of self-worth. Spouses who give up everything for their significant other (hobbies, friends, etc.) often end up building feelings of resentment and bitterness which can be lethal to any good relationship. Or they lose all sense of who they are, which can make a marriage wither away slowly until things just don't work anymore. This is not to say that being hitched does not require change, compromise and flexibility - but it should be a two-way street. The healthiest marriages are those in which both partners are willing to work together, to respect each other's needs and help their partner maintain their identity separate from the relationship. To quote Khalil Gibran, 'Love one another but make not a bond of love. Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.' You've obviously got a head start on this wise perspective, now all you have to do is keep it up!
