They say good things take time. However, we spend most of our lives seemingly rushing through things, only to look back days or months later regretting and wondering why we did that.
Don't fall victim. Here are five things you should never rush into:
1.Making your relationship public
It's always said a relationship is between two people.
Therefore, before you go into public commitment, it is imperative to ensure you are fully committed to your partner, and truly understand and appreciate your relationship.
Don't disclose anything if you are not ready, whether to your family or friends.
Don't do it out of pressure.
2.Making a large financial commitment
Owning a house, car, acres of land can be appealing and tempting, but very dangerous when you cannot handle them all, because you don't have enough money.
Live within your means, work with what you have to get what you want.
3.Sex
It is perfectly okay to wait before you decide to have sex in a relationship.
If he or she is really the one, they won't rush into sex.
Do not succumb into societal pressure. Wait for as long as you want.
4.Marriage
Don't rush to walk down the aisle just because everyone is doing it.
It's not only dangerous for your relationship but also your sanity. Instead, keep calm until you find the right person.
If you are ever thinking of rushing into marriage, just remember marriage is expensive, and divorce is even worse.
5.A new role at work
The paycheck may be enticing but also keep in mind the changes that will come along with the new role.
It's important to critically think through it, weigh your options and be sure you can handle everything that comes along with it before accepting the new role.
