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 chapter of life where people cannot understand real life unless they enter it. Therefore, formal education cannot explain what marriage is until they have real experience. If there is good understanding and transparency between your life partner, life after marriage is happy. I think that no matter how far you cross the university threshold, marriage is another university for you.
And this university will make you know what life is all about. The romantic view that our society has towards marriage sometimes conflicts with reality. And this tendency is mainly seen in the post-marital life of minor children.
They get married without being established enough and the reality comes to the fore after some time.
