Right now, if anybody asks meβ¦..Do you want to get married ? Without doubt, my answer would be NO. I don't know why I am so sure about this but I am.
When I was young, I had the a vision about what marriages would be like and how it works. But, it is exactly the opposite of what I believed those days. It was because I was too young to understand things. And now, I look around and observe all the negative things along with the good ones. This made me decide that I cannot survive in a marriage. But all the marriages does not suck, right? There are several happy lives too.
People fall in love and make great plans to make a grand wedding and loves to spend a fortune on it. Why not live together when you are happy even without marriage? What is the need to put a label or confirm your relationship when you have the trust within yourselves ? These questions might go on.
But then people get scared because of the judgements given about them by the society. Well, the truth is, it does not matter. Being trustworthy to your self is what that will make you happy. Not living for others.
On the other hand, Marriage is a tradition that has been performed over centuries by all religions across the world. It is a kind of a safety net for the people and their families. It gives them the hope of feeling safe.
I think it is just a trap. Many people say that love is lost when married. According to me, it is because they feel tied with the name of Marriage. It makes them nervous and they feel responsible to all the things which makes them more anxious. The first few months or years may go well. But, it changes and they become bored of themselves. I think bored is not the right term to use. We can say that they become tired of their daily routine.
So, single or living together or married. All these doesn't matter until we are very clear of what we need. We just have to follow our heart as well as our mind. We need to make sure about the future that we want for ourselves. Do not fall for a temporary excitement and worry about it in the coming days of your life.
