“I am in the age group where half of my
friends are getting married and remaining half are so drunk, that they can't
even find their mobile Phones”
Before you
start reading let me clarify.. I am not
getting married...this topic is of choice of my ex..where she always wanted
me to write an article on Marriage..it may be of her choice.....but dedicated to all the readers..!!
Early morning,
I was texting to my crush on WhatsApp, trying to define her the meaning of love
and romance. The Moment I slided down on WhatsApp, I messaged "Good
Morning, Great day" to her (yes, to my ex)... Trust me, she didn't reply.
Out of curiosity, I checked her profile picture, found her selfie where she was
keeping her head on the shoulder of a guy (the same head which she used to keep
on my shoulder). Did I feel happy??..
IDK...Was I jealous??..IDK..Do I regret??..IDK..but yes may be, because I
know..it's the same girl whom I called my love..it's the same girl whom I
taught romance.. It's the same girl whom I promised to be with for my whole
life..it's the same girl who shared everything with me, it's the same girl who
kissed me, it's the same girl whom I
kissed on NH4 (Highway) in rain!! But the sad part here is that the same girl
who was doing above-said with me is doing the same with some other guy now and
the other guy is none other than her Husband..her choice...Her parents choice..!
Now she is married..!!
Do you know???.the
only ritual we all commit with maturity and understanding is marriage of two
souls...nothing else...many things in our life are uncertain...like....when we are born ...we don't know...when our
kids will be born, they don't know...when we will die..We don't know...when
someone else will die..they don't know..!! But we all know whom we are
getting married to. At weddings, we take crazy pictures, upload them on
Facebook, tag others and enjoy the event saying married, taken, getting
hitched, etc etc..!! Well everybody have their own style of acknowledging it
over the social media, right? ;)
Trust me, have
heard from millions and seen from others' experiences[including our parents]
this journey is not easy, not at all a cake walk..Selecting a boy or Girl for
marriage means choosing a person for life..not an easy job u see...one of my
friend rejected more than 20 proposals and when I asked her the reason she
explained too but that was out of my course…we stay in a country where a man
divorces his wife, because she had a bad breathe while kissing him
(yuck...).Calm down man...tell her to brush or use mouth spray before you kiss
her..! Yes it may be a silly example but we all look for compatibility in
relationship.. Indians are not anymore greedy for sex..Women don't marry the one who
took her virginity...we have differentiated sex from our life and May be
nothing wrong as sex doesn't give us life but marriage does..
The real shit why Indians Go for Marriage
is..!!
1. Dowry - Yes
few places still follow tradition of dowry...kick those bastards...!!
2. Unlimited
Sex- few still think nothing can be Best than this, socially approved... every
morning even neighbors ask "kaisi thi raat (How was Your night)? "
tell them sex is not everything..
3. He needs
someone to help his mother with the household chores...Why don't you yourself
give her a hand then?
4. Oldie- they
say you are getting old after 22 for gals and 25 for Boys.. Wtf.. A woman can
deliver baby at the age of 50+ and a man holds spirit till 60...(I am not sure,
but I read it somewhere)
5.Friends- all
your friends Getting Married... Hell, it's not our fault...its his/her choice..
6. NRI - oh so
guy is NRI means it's about $$....what can be Best than this..Ask him is there
any country better than India..?
And many
more....!!!
My personal
experience, whenever I open my Facebook I usually find a new status almost on
daily basis by some of my friends 'Getting married' and sometimes I feel May be
I am loosing something or lacking behind them..But I am sure someday I too will
get married ;) <3 (Y) :) I don't know when that some day will come ;)....but
eventually it will (hopefully).
Simple and straight suggestion, Don't Marry for sex, don't marry because
you are "of age" or getting old...Don't marry because you are lonely
or you need someone to support you financially...Don't marry because you like
the idea of marriage or admire every wedding gown you see..Don't marry because
your friends are getting married but get married when you are in love, she/he
is your best friend and when that friendship is no more, but he or she can
still make you smile :) Marry him or her.!!
God Bless Married Couples
