Marriages in India Recently, I read an article about how a girl thinks that she would not make a good  "Indian bride" and gave her reasons for the same which I thought were laughable. But after researching a bit more I was shocked as to how right she was. For instance, people in India still expect the girl to take the boy's surname for no other reason than to stoke their own ego. The girl has to be well educated but after her marriage, she should sit at home and give up her career for which she has worked her whole life. What kind of bullshit is that?  Marriage advertisements have become nothing short of a sale. They read "Young girl, 25 years in age, beautiful, educated, good cook, has Indian values, does not have male friends". Of course because if a girl has friends other than girls she can only be a loose character kind of girl can't she?  Is this the face of modern India?  Our Country India has developed to become the largest ...

1. Think before you speak People in marriages tend to have very "hot" buttons causing frequent arguments. One reason for this is that the boundaries that exist at the workplace or with friends and relatives do not exist in a marriage. Much of marital bickering can be lessened or mitigated if you wait before you respond to something that has made you angry. If you think for even five seconds before you respond, the amount of marital bickering will be greatly reduced. It may be better to discuss the difficult issue on another day when the emotions are not so high. You can broach the topic (at that later time) by saying, "Dear, I have some unfinished business to discuss with you. May we discuss it now?" 2. Don't give up If you ask any married person, he or she will tell you that marriages wax and wane. There are good times, bad times, and even in middle times.
