For
As per me if you know person before you get married then it helps you to understand that person. You can know personality of that person, taste of that person. You can check your compabilities before you get engaged. You can start relation with friendship then you can move on.☺✌👍

definitely if i am obliged to choose, i will choose ' FOR'..
...the reasons why...
....1....you have to know the person next to you,you have to know what makes him/her happy,what makes him/her sad....what is annoying for him/her etc..in order to know all these details you need to spend time together...lots of time...

...2...you don't marry somebody you just fell in love with.....you can fell in love with somebody from the first date but this doesn't give you any guarantees that if you marry him/her you will live a happy life....so stay with the person...spend time together to know him/her better and read 'reason 1 ' ...

...3....the old couple on the image says 'in their days' when something was broken they tried to fix it....true and this can work...it can truly work....i mean in a marriage both sides have to work hard to keep it going...but...there is a big but... this doesn't mean that what they did those days was the right thing to do...and keep in mind that its another thing to work together in order to have a successful marriage and another thing to tolerate bad behaviors because you cannot do otherwise,afraid of what the people around you is going to say if you break up ...most of the times those days this is exactly what was happening!!!!...so if you don't want to experience something like that read 'reason 1'....

...thank you!!!!

The success of a marriage is not dependent on how long both partners dated but their willingness to learn and unlearn and do everything within their power to make the marriage work.
How long you date a person will not really translate to how well you will know him/her because most people pretend a lot in a relationship.
You can know a lot about a person by simply asking the right questions and by observing their actions and inactions. So the length of dating shouldn't be a determining factor in marriage.
When love and understanding is present in the relationship and the partners have a strong determination to make the marriage work, regardless of the length of the dating, the marriage will work.
Our fathers and fore fathers never dated, but they had more lasting and blissful marriage compared to this present day where couples dates for long before marriage.
The divorce rate in this present day is extremely higher when compared to the divorce rate in the days of our fathers and grand fathers. All these are proofs that the length of dating has very negligible effects in the success of a marriage.
Regardless of how long you date a person, it is only what they want to know about them that they will reveal to you unless you're able to ask the righ questions and observe their actions.
Most long dating relationships turn into a routine after a while because both partners do the same things and repeat the same actions.
The qualities that make marriage work don't take long to be discovered in a partner.
Some people can date for years and live peacefully because they are both hiding their flaws from each other, but the moment they get married, they start seeing who each of them truly are and the marriage will hit the rock.
It's only in marriage that you can actually know who a person is because that is the time that they're likely going to let down their facades and reveal their true selves to you.

So the length of dating play no part in the success of a marriage. If the love and connection is mutual and the two partners can risk sacrificing and compromising for each other, the marriage will certainly work out fine. i rest my case.

For.
It is not infallible, but it is more likely that the marriage will be forever, because people change to adapt to the people nearby, but if the couple spends more time with someone else, sooner or later also will change some aspects to look more like to them and then there can be divorce any way.

{Oh look, a thing I generally agree with how contemporary society is nowadays.}

I am for the motion!

The points:

Starting on a person-person level, it’s best to know who yer going to marry and, over time, accept the person’s qualities. On this level, a person should be hanging out with another not on the looks or “love on first sight” principle, but something that made our first judgement of them correct.
Going further but on an economic-side, it saves you from having early-on massive debts being piled up on both of you. This is especially true when both of you break up and have to split up what both of you possess post-marriage.
To play off the first two points, the relationship you possess with the other will heal up faster than a divorce. (Since it wasn’t a divorce with the one you won’t split off from “‘til death doth you apart,” and not a costly break-up at that.)
To swing back on social-side, it gives you lovebirds time to know what personalities the other has and see if you can work within that. And if you both can’t gel together, then you both, assuming you both consent, can work to resolve any conflicts in personalities before marriage.
Continuing on, if you can’t resolve the conflicts in personalities and know the relationship will hurt BOTH OF YOU, then you both can consent to break-up and stay as friends (best-friends later down the road).
Swinging unto a more positive side, this is where you both can cover for each other and feel more whole when around your other. Dates acts as a relaxing medium to develop yourself as you get more connected with the other.
Economically speaking yet again, this is where you can treat each other as to secure the economic trust of each other. And at the same time, show how your interdependence will make you better off than worse.
Now moving beyond the person-person level to the person-society level, this is where you can experiments with your tastes and see what type of people you want to be with. For if it doesn’t work with the first one, you at least now what to do and what not to do for the next go around.
With such development gained, you gain insight of how a community is in general. Which hopefully will make you less of a dick and be a better person around that community.
To round it off, let’s touch upon marriages. Albeit I agree with the concept of divorces and think getting a divorce should be easier, it could be drastically reduced if people where to date longer than they usually commit to. (Albeit one should note divorces are also affected by economic health of the couple, unfortunate events and so on and so on. And if we actually care to reduce divorce rates, these ills and the source of such ought to be combatted and reduced as much as humanly possible.)
Going back to point two and expand upon it, not only does dating save potentially you lovebirds cash, but also the friends and family of such as well. Even more, it spares you lovebirds and them from ties being cut, socially and economically, on every imaginable level.

There was nothing like dating in the olden days and marriage then last longer than now. This proves that the length of dating has nothing to do with the success of a marriage
I've seen so many people that dated for very long yet their marriage still went the way of divorce. So it's not about how long you date the person
So many people don't understand the purpose of dating before marriage. So many of them spend the dating time engaging in fun activities and very little time in trying to figure out if their partner is right for them. So it will be difficult to determine the true qualities your partner have from such irrespective of how long you date
A relationship will work if both partners want it to work regardless of the length of the dating
To have an idea of who a person is doesn't need to take too long. Simple questioning, attitude observation, friends they keep will reveal to you if the person is righ or wrong for you.
You can't actually know who someone truly irrespective of how long you date. So long dating doesn't guarantee you knowing the person and having a loving marriage.
Long dating wastes people's time when the relationship don't work out. Dating normally is supposed to be short. It's courtship that takes a little time.

The length of a date does not determine the success of a marriage, it is who a person is that determines such. So whether you date the person for a day or 2years, if they have the wrong traits, the relationship will not still work out.

Just want to ask a question.
Do you judge the debate based on the number of points give or on the validity of such points? I see so many people repeating the same points on and on so as to have more numbers because it seems that is what you considers. The validity of the points is what's important in a debate not the repetition of one point in different forms

For.

Reason 1. You'll not get to know your partner properly which would be a great problem.
Reason 2. You might not make your partner happy as you both will be like stranger.
Reason 3. You'll have lots of secrets which will be a dangerous problem.
Reason 4. You might not be able to keep your marriage for long.

This is all now from me.

this is a really great idea. Love what you are doing here. Awesome.

I see you are here on steemit a few months now, just had a look around your account. I know when people start here they get a few welcome messages, but after that, if you have not joined a community you can easily get lost in the sea of posts. How are you getting on here on steemit anyway?

I’m doing a little bit of outreach this week with those that have been here a few months and have had some time to get a feel for the place. Would love to know your thoughts so far? Is there anything I can help you with or questions I can answer for you? Look from your account you know what you are doing 😉

One tip I am spreading this week is to check your mentions. being part of steemit includes engagement and if someone happens to mention you in a post, you should really check it out. You can find your mentions on https://steemworld.org/@mwanjo, if you look through the tabs, you will find all your mentions.
