Marriage is often romanticized, but the reality is far more complex. Many couples enter marriage with little understanding of how to navigate conflicts, communicate effectively, or manage shared responsibilities. So, what kind of marriage education do we actually need?
First, we need practical tools—not just fluffy theories. Think conflict resolution skills, financial planning, and emotional intelligence training. Second, real talk about expectations. Too many people go into marriage with unrealistic ideals, only to face disappointment later. Finally, normalize ongoing education. Marriage isn’t a one-time event; it’s a journey that requires constant learning and adaptation.
What’s missing in today’s marriage education? Should it start earlier, like in schools? Or is it something couples should figure out on their own? Let’s discuss!
Marriage is a beautiful but annoyingly amazing thing that most of us are always not prepared for, it's not something to be educated on if you ask me, we all have different understanding and we were raised differently, the way I see marriage may not be the same way my partner see marriage. Couples should figure out things about marriage by themselves through courtship and then decide if they want to go into the main marriage, it's important to have real and honest discussion about marriage, the hard stuff, the conflict and the happy moments. We should talk about them, some people fake to be happy in their marriage and advising others wrongly.
