As their beautiful love story unfolded, I listened in awe and was pretty much struck with awe throughout the entire wedding reception. I kept thinking how a whirlwind romance must feel like, to be proposed to in just a couple of months into dating, where you barely know the person you’re dating other than what you may see and know on the surface.

It takes a lot to make a marriage work. It takes understanding, patience, giving and taking and not to mention love to take all the challenges of a marriage in stride. But if you do not know the person deep enough, does this pose a threat to the workability of a marriage? That was the burning question in my mind.

It sure sounds like a fairy tale when all goes on and ends well. But when problems arise in the marriage, I’m quite sure doubts of whether they had gotten married too quickly will come to mind. I’m not the type of girl who can say yes to a marriage proposal if I don’t date the guy long enough to know more of all sides of him. The good and the bad. I need to know what I’m getting into, with eyes wide open. I don’t like surprises and I don’t think I can take them well if they are bad surprises. So call me unromantic and unspontaneous, but a whirlwind romance ending in marriage is really not my thing.

How about the other ladies out there? Can you get to know someone in 3 months and know that he is the one?
