Description
When we consider the crisis in the family institution, the high divorce rate in marriages, and the chaos that we find in the dating arena, one can be tempted to ask if there is something wrong with the institution of marriage. However, there is nothing wrong with marriage. In computer science, there is a concept that is called garbage in, garbage out (GIGO), that can help us to understand. It simply means that the quality of the output is determined by the quality of the input. If you put garbage in, chances are high that you will get garbage out. When we bring this concept into marriage, it will mean that the quality of marriage is determined by the kind of input that we bring into marriage. Since dating and courtship are the input into marriage, we need to focus our attention on what happens in dating, and not end there, go back to what needs to happen before we start dating. This is because life is a journey, a journey from the cradle to the grave. Like any journey, before you get on the road, there are important things that you need to consider. These are things like, where are you going, with whom, and using what transportation. This is what we are addressing in this book, “What you need to know before you start dating”, which can also be called Part 1 of “The journey to marriage in the 21st Century”. Part2 will follow soon, and it will be called “What you need to know before you get married.” Are you going to date or court for the first time? Maybe you are single again and want to re-enter the world of dating and courtship. Look no further. The book “What you need to know before you start dating” provides much needed guidance across age groups. It opens your eyes to see all perspectives, but leaves you to make informed decisions. Please don’t leap into the dark or throw yourself into the deep end hoping all will be well. Here is life changing knowledge. It will help you avoid, the “I wish I knew” syndrome.
