Four marriage factors a seafarer must consider while choosing a wife.

Seafarers job is a type of carrier whereby you may not see your wife or kids for some months... ; sometimes it happens that some seafarers do sail for long distance (one or two months) without mobile network or Internet to reach there families. In that case,  there is need for a seaman to carefully select woman to marry.

On this article, We are going to list some factors which seafarers must consider before marriage. ;

1. Love : the word "love" sometimes can be dynamic. In the early stages, it is sweeter than honey which may cause you and your partner not to know more about the future and nature of the environment(staying alone for months with you) .  So while in love, as a seafarer,  you must make sure you explain to your partner in detail about the nature of your job,  be sure she or he loves you.

2. Beauty/handsome : Everyone like to have his or her partner to be beautiful or handsome on the outer look,  but forgot that what makes up handsome man and beautiful woman are not only the outer look, but it involves the behavior of the person, understanding, trust,  patience, etc.  Therefore while choosing wife as a seafarer,  you must not consider the physical body look,  but first consider the inner side first,  because the inner side listed above does it all while you are offshore not the physical look. 

3. Home trained & management : As a seafarer, if you marry someone who lack home training or management skills,  you will end up working but zero efforts.  Women are very sensitive and can be change.  You need to make sure your partner have home train and can manage your home in your absence.

4. Fear of God : This point have it all,  if your partner have the fear of God in him or her,  then the number one and two points could have been included.  Meaning you will have her trained either by the help of your family members or your religion members, since you are not always at home to do that.

In conclusion,  you need to pray to God,  for the best partner.

Age which wait for no one passes very fast and before you know it,  this person remain either rating or low rank till the end of his career age.

4. Unconcerned : some rating for example do feel unconcerned about the duties of there superior,  which makes the very poor in performance and ship owners do not take people who do not improve there job quality.  In this case,  they end up staying at home looking for job from year to year and end up earning nothing for themselves.
