This is a new article discussing the changing culture of traditional Saudi young people. Some now prefer to become financially stable for themselves and then focus on marriage. As a lot of us married know, it is good to get a sense of who you are on your own before you develop a relationship with someone else. You will be better able to negotiate your own needs and meet someone else’s as well.
“Young Saudis are ‘choosing self-sufficiency over settling down'”
“Financial stability plays a key role in ensuring long-term social and psychological needs are met in marriage, experts say.

Research claims that waiting until 25 to marry reduces the chance of divorce by up to 50 percent.”
