Indian Marriages

Stopped reading at "adjustments on the girl's end" 😳

You seem to be heavily favoured towards female. Would have made it a good discussion if you were neutral.

Average divorce rate does not reflect ground reality everywhere. We have a large population remember. Divorce rate is going above 30% in urban India, which is a more accurate reflection of what's really happening.

Divorces have doubled and tripled in the last 10-20 years in India. Would have been higher if our country was more educated and wasn't suppressed by undue pressure from relatives and family members.

Almost everyone faces some issues and they just suppress it among themselves thinking that it's the right way, and marriage is all about adjustments.

Yes, when 2 people would want to live together, adjustments are required. But often, it's the wrong adjustments that prevails.

This has been the case not just now, but almost all the time, decades back as well.

And the 1% divorce rate is exactly because if this. No one is there to support the person in problem (female/male), and usually their family also asks them to adjust (suppress it) and move on. I mean, what would the society think?

And regarding dowry, there's no shame from the groom's side. I mean, they could beg on streets rather than troubling bride's side. And most of bride's side is no less either, they want to do it for the society.

Bhai/behen le lo divorce tum. Usi me khush rahoge lagta hai.
