Why won't they be happy for me?

Dear Mr. Sugar, I'm happily engaged to be married in a few months, but my friends and family aren't happy with my choice to get married so soon, the feel that we barely know each other and can't possibly be ready to get married. We've dated for about 4 months, and we're both a 100% sure we want to be married to each other so what's the problem?

Hello Yewande,

Marriage is easily the most important decision a person makes in life. You have to be patient and that takes time, I suggest you wait until you are certain that you really know this person. What is your hurry? Are you afraid that if you wait he will change his mind? If that is what concerns you, than you need not get married. Similarly you should take this time to really get to know one another. Here are just a few of the questions you should ask each other and always remember that actions speak louder than words. Go to this site and formalize questions that you want answered; If you two are really ready to get married than you should feel comfortable asking him questions about your future together.
