Marriage is more than a wedding cake and fancy dress. The I Do's is a lifelong commitment of headaches, break-ups, and years of joy and laughter.
If asked how the journey of marriage is going from a couple married 0 to 5 years may sound very different from a couple married 5-10 years and different from those who have been married 10-20 years and so on.

Considering all the possibilities of the good and bad must be factored in before discussing marriage with your partner. Making a list of concerns and goals could help when the timing is right. This is very similar to the Business Plan in the blog "Should you start a business with someone you are dating?"
Five Questions to ask yourself before getting married
Am I Ready?
Am I willing to share myself with someone else?
Do I know who I'm marrying?
Do I know who I am?
Am I ready to be transparent with someone else?
Knowing if you are ready for commitment will depend on how much you know about yourself. Marriage is simply a continuous business plan on how to become successful with another person. Marriage is often seen as being associated with love and fidelity and that is true. However, if you find yourself asking the question of who am I and what is my purpose in life will be the number one indicator that you are not ready for marriage as it will interfere with the focus on building yourself as a person first. Knowing who you are will eliminate the thoughts of what I am willing or not willing to take from another person.
