In India, marriage is thought to be for a life time, the divorce rate is very low in our country. For individual, marriage is great watershed in life, making the transition to adulthood. Generally, this transition like everything else in India, depends upon individual volition but instead occur as result of efforts of many people. Arranging marriage is a critical responsibility for the parents and other relatives of the bride and groom. 

Few years back arrange marriage was more preferable than love marriages in India. And the process of these marriages are really overwhelming. I have seen my own family members going through it. Starting from registering on matrimonial sites to meeting different types of people, families to find a perfect partner and for that they actually met more than 40-50 families or may be more. At one point, it sounds interesting like meeting for the 1st time with Kande Pohe and Tea. Wedding enthusiasm. But after certain point it becomes tiring and I really wonder about it means is it really worth it? 

When I see now, mostly marriages are love marriage. The process is cut short and its good also. Bride and groom are already known to each other. They know about their families their ambitions and then they choose each other. 

Marriage should the celebration of love. Nothing less nothing more. Two pure soul want to spend whole life with each other.

But to reach their what is real parameters. How we can be sure about this big and life changing decision.

In early era, age for marriage was very young. With time it changed. The average age for women to get married is 21 according to 2011 census of India. 

Women in today's world are more ambitious towards their career.  Most of them prefer to get settled first not depending on anyone but herself. And after that they think of getting married. Some families supports but in some cases girls had to leave studies or career just to get married. Some go through family pressure or some financial condition. And leave their dreams. After end up in bad, abusive marriage or family who treats disrespectfully. I feel really bad when I see such cases. This is the main reason we should encourage girls to get education and then they can able to choose whats best for her. What she wants to be and with whom she wants to spend her life.
