4 Birth Months That Take Forever To Get Married

Some of us are so excited to get married weโ€™ll jump at the chance to walk down the aisle as soon as weโ€™ve found the one. Others? Well, it might take the rest of us much, much longer to feel ready enough to agree to such a big commitment. If youโ€“or the one you loveโ€“were born in one of the following four birth months, marriage is avoided for a long, long time. Thatโ€™s if you can get them to commit at all. Good luck to you!

February

For people born in February, marriage just isnโ€™t a high priority. It isnโ€™t that they arenโ€™t in love or are necessarily afraid of commitment. Instead, they just arenโ€™t the type of person to act unless thereโ€™s a very good, compelling reason for it. If theyโ€™re happy with the way the relationship is, then why change it? Theyโ€™re more likely to be proposed to than the one doing the proposing. Thatโ€™s if youโ€™ve gotten them to commit at all, which can be a tall order for people born in February.

April

People born in April are impulsive. They lead with their emotions first and foremost, which are often fiery and volatile. Itโ€™ll take them forever to get married not because they fear commitment or hate the idea of marriage, but because theyโ€™ll likely get bored of every relationship long before that kind of life transition could ever happen. Theyโ€™re always looking for the next best thing, and thatโ€™s hard to do when youโ€™re in a relationship for years or decades. Itโ€™s only after theyโ€™ve finally settled down that theyโ€™re likely to have a wedding, and that can take a long, long time.

May

For those born in May, itโ€™s their duality thatโ€™s holding them back from getting married sooner. While they absolutely love commitment, theyโ€™re also incredibly averse to change at the same time. They donโ€™t understand the point of a wedding and a binding contract when things are already going so well as they are. Why mess with a good thing? Deep down they fear that if they change the status quo by making everything that much more official, the dynamic will change too, and itโ€™ll ruin everything.

June

Of the entire year of birth months, itโ€™s June that fears commitment the most. They see even just a regular long-term relationship a ball-and-chain tying them down. They want to be free, and you canโ€™t be free if youโ€™re committed to someone, or worse, married. Itโ€™s basically their worst nightmare. That doesnโ€™t mean theyโ€™ll never get married, though. Itโ€™ll just take a long, long time and require either lots of personal growth or an unfortunate and ill-thought-out ultimatum.
