Very well written….Every relationship has its own strong & weak points and we need to go ahead with it accordingly Problem comes when after a point we start seeing only the negatives in our partner forgetting all the good things that actualy impressed us at the begining of the relationship !!! And this goes with both, whether its love or arrange marriage !!!

This article actually reminds me of the movie “hum tum”

A decade back, when we wanted a shirt or pants, we went to a local tailor. He made exact measuremets and stiched the dress according to our taste and fit. If we wanted to do minor alterations, he will do it. The same thing happened in the case of marriage. Our parents chose the groom or girl taking into account various factors. And we lived together forever afterwards.

Things have changed now. We do not normally go to a tailor anymore. We go to a ready made shop to choose our dress. You can try out the dress. But once we choose, we have little choice but to adjust to it or throw it away. This is what happens now with marriage also. So it is better to make our choice correct in the first place than to repent it later. This what the tennis player has done and is to be appreciated.

Very well written Priya. All the gals who have put in their views in Part 1 – the points you have mentioned are absolutely right and all these inputs put together can lead to a happy married life. I would also like to add that every relationship is diferent and has to be dealt in its own way and the best person to do that are the husband and wife. We can read books, go to a shrink but ultimately it is us who have to work on it..

I have been married for 5 ½ years and it was a love marriage. And I love my husband more with each passing day. I am a very short tempered person and my husband is calm as a monk  so you can see we do have our share of fights. But I totally agree that communication is number one factor to keep a relationship stable. Assuming something and acting on it screws up things. Also, expecting the person to change for you.. Well well, don’t we all love stuff customized for our taste  unfortunately that’s not possible in a relationship. But that does not mean, you need to agree or disagree everything your spouse does or says. You feel something is wrong, talk to him or her and come to a conclusion which works best for both of you. And lastly repeating what Priya mentioned – Forgive and Forget.

Priya, I agree with Varsha on the article. It’s well written with all arguments and opinions of everyone put together. I hope to see you with silver hair (I can’t even think to imagine that, not possible you’d look even more mature, wise-crack !! & Q).
