I am married but we do not have children. Our relationship, though we did not desire for it, is "to each his own". Any suggestion to improve our relationship?

I am willing to get married and I think I could handle marriage responsibilities but my parents simply do not give their permission until I finish my education and have a career of my own.

I am a man and am willing to get married but sisters do not believe that I could be a good husband and father because I have not yet finished my education.

As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I advise you and your husband to seek counsel from your local leaders, such as your bishop or stake president, for guidance and support in strengthening your marriage. Additionally, consider prayerfully seeking personal revelation and guidance from the Lord through scripture study, regular attendance at church meetings, and participation in temple ordinances. It may also be helpful to communicate openly and honestly with your spouse about your desires, concerns, and goals for your relationship, and to seek out opportunities for service and growth together as a couple. Remember that the Lord is mindful of you and your marriage, and He will guide you as you seek His help and guidance.

It's important to respect your parents' wishes and understand that they want only the best for you. While you may feel ready for marriage, consider using your time now to focus on your education and career goals. Use this period to prepare yourself emotionally, financially, and spiritually for marriage. Keep open communication with your parents about your feelings and desires, and try to address any concerns they may have. Trust that in due time, as you demonstrate maturity and responsibility, they may become more open to the idea of you getting married. Ultimately, seek guidance through prayer and faith, and trust that things will unfold according to Heavenly Father's timing. Always remember this verse : " If the time is right, I the Lord will make it happen"

As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I would encourage you to focus on personal growth and development, including completing your education if there is opportunity and chance to take it. While education is valuable, it is not the sole indicator of your ability to be a good husband and a father. Show your dedication, responsibility, and commitment to your future family through your actions and character. Ultimately, trust in Heavenly Father's plan for you and seek guidance through prayer and counsel from trusted individuals, including church leaders and family members.

I guess the right time will come when you'll be with the person whom you choose to be with.

It might be tough right now to battle with the notion of being " not good enough" or "no high- educational attainement" as a basis for choosing a partner , but the right people will love you and accept you for who you are and will help you be better and become your best.

With this in mind, I guess while waiting for the right person to come in your life, what you can do is to be the right person too. Hope this helps.

I'm not sureee huhu.

But one thing that I can suggest is to ask God how you'll talk to your parents regarding your decision to get married.

I think both parties have the right reason on why they raise this concern. Parents simply want the best for their children. They want their children to be happy but they do not choose for their kids.

God showed this to us. This exemplary love is what our Father in Heaven is teaching us here in mortality. He gave His planned for us and we got to choose which path to take in this mortality.And we perfectly knows how He feels when we ended up sorrowful because of our poor decisions, but Their love remains the same.

So , whatever you choose, your parents will support you. It will be difficult for both of you but its paft of our personal development and life goes on.

Peace.

I lament with you. I will try to be a helping hand.

Be not worried because there are resources that God has provided for us to geth through with this.

I suggest seeking for counsel with priesthood leaders will help you get directed.

Your family and friend is also a great support and to talk with.

And our Savior , Jesus Christ knows it perfectly what it feels to be in your shoes.

I do understand why the parents have their own opinion about this, especially, they would just want the BEST for their child; BUT, they also have to understand, that at the end of the day, it is Heavenly Father's will to be done — not theirs. I know it's easy to conclude something like this, nevertheless, although it's a difficult situation, fastings and prayers must be done by both parties [the man and the woman who have the desire to get married] — asking for our [Heavenly] Father's guidance and power to lead them and to soften their own parent's hearts. Remember, if it is really Heavenly Father's will, He will make a way to go through it and He is capable of doing miracles on your part — as you exercise your faith and do all things that lie in your power. That may include some days/months of waiting for the miracle to come, but I know, it will. If you (and your future partner) had already prayed, pondered, and asked the Lord in temple if that's His will, and they both received the same responses, then just go and do — you both have our Father's permission to do so, but still, listen to the promptings of the Holy Ghost much more attentively so you will be thoroughly guided.
