This is actually a very deep topic although many of us would think that its just a lame topic. Because all of us from this generation are too practical and they would say that love cannot survive without financial support WHICH IS ACTUALLY VERY TRUE…!!
But think of few of our previous generations where couples used to sustain with the meagre sources of income with lots of children. They managed to sustain but how was that possible??
Today nobody is so foolish to fall in love with a beggar. Not the boy , not the girl. Even boys do not want poor girls as their wives. The wife should have good property and should be self sufficient and should have bbank balance and all that goes on…..
But even after marrying self sufficient partners , there as more number of divorces than that used to happen before.
Actually previously there were hardly any divorce cases. But today there are so many divorce cases. Take for example the celebrities. They are the most practical people of the lot. Even Mukesh Ambani married a school teacher being a entrepreneur but celebrities' would never marry someone with less money but they are the ones suffering the most divorce cases. Now this is true for celebrities around the world , not only in India.
So we need to find out the root cause. We all know that in this generation no couple can sustain without good money. That's true. But a relationship requires much more than just financial support to sustain. Financial support is one of the major factors for a relationship to carry on but when money becomes the key factor in a relationship, then arises the problem.
Everybody wants a good house, a good car, a good status, a good job and so on. But we need to understand and differentiate between our wants and needs. When wants become heavier than our needs then our relationship suffers to many folds. And then love actually dies between the partners.
Actually when a couple is subjected to poor conditions for a certain period of time , it actually tests their love and bonding level with each other. When they can sustain the hardships together, its only then can they enjoy the joy and achievements together.
There are many couples who sells panipuris beside the road or beg together. But they do not leave each other?? i feel strange in understanding their chemistry and bonding. They are beggars and have got nothing, then why are they living together.
I do not know if that is called ‘ Love’ but that's something unthinkable by our generation and its out of box altogether if I am not mistaken.
