Even Now, I don't Care What Society Things. Society Won't Be Something That I Consider If I Meet Someone I Want To Live With....
If society didn't interfere in my life, then I'd rather live with someone I liked than marriage

Do u really think that the only way for us to differenciate us from animals is by signing a document?Originally Posted by SS
Agreed taht Security, happiness, relations, enjoyment and sadness is what makes a person's life. But since when is all of this only attainable through marriage? (Not saying that it isn't, I'm not 70+ ) But just curious...how are all these things only attainable in marriage?Originally Posted by SS
I beg to differ...:P Maybe not in TN, because TN is a faily conservative State (Or atleast pretends to be), and as long as u have bored housewives gossiping about other ppls business, it proly isn't gonna happen, but it is easily possible in otherparts of the nation.Living together system is not possible in India
Back after a while...

ShaktiPrabha .... I loved the way u said a few things despite not agreeing with all. Nice.
I'd like to put my 2 cents here altho not sure how agreeable it sounds.....
Marriage in our society was originally devised as not just a mere uniting of 2 individuals but also 2 families...also the purpose of marriage of 2 individuals was intended not to promote their own desires for physical relationship but to care for the upline family (of the husband) & promote progeny of said family.
The relation between a husband & wife was meant to be sumthing like a team tat was dedicated to tend to the family needs more than their own. Duties/responsibilities played more a role than personal desires (wich I'm not against either!)
It was for this reason tat arranged marriages wer preferred in our society & love-marriages wer looked down upon as the latter wer thot of as selfish individual desires w/ no responsibilites/care for the rest of the family, besides feared to bring complications among each others' families.
But eventually w/ mostly men straying away from the value system & seeing marriage as mostly a means to permanant physical satisfaction & more recnetly w/ the increase of nuclear family concepts, the purpose of marriage narrowed down to jus seeking a partner for nearly lifelong physical bliss (wich is also mainly y sexual satisfaction has become such a major concern for ppl. to be married!) w/ having children becoming a little more than a by-product or coincidence of the relationship!
I guess w/ the purpose behind marriage thinning out gradually, the idea of marriage is becoming questionable nowadays....
thx shalu
Lambretta,
Truth is there in ur argument. QUITE a lot infact.
Yet, however SELFISH or whatever be the motive, MARRIAGE keeps the society goign on in a decent way. Thats the ONLY WAY To prevent MULTIPLE relationships.
It becomes............ worse without one such system.

However, no I'm not against the institution of marriage, count me out of tat crowd! :P
I was merely poiting out the basis of questioning the custom of marriage as of today......ie. to say these r the reasons tat led to the gradual 'shallowness' tat marriage is now being viewed w/.....
IMO if today society, atleast in India, made one to undersatnd the depth in married life, it wudnt hav led to as much likelihood of debating/questioning the same!
Uh, hope tat makes it sound clearer.... :P
SP : btw u hv got the guts to be honest about wat u felt some years ago !Originally Posted by Shakthiprabha
Yea tats very brave no doubt......but wats more amazing is tat she actually developed a POSITIVE view abt marriage NOW, rather than 10 yrs ago......wen it shud've normally been the OTHER WAY round w/ most in our society....Originally Posted by ramky
Nevertheless, in tat case I guess shez lucky she already got married 10+ yrs ago, since wat she felt then REMAINED as only wat she felt then......
