    When two people get married their marriage will be filled with sweet melodies of ever growing love and a lifetime of togetherness. Their journey begins as Husband and Wife, a time that’s meant to create the best years of their life. After engagement they get to know each other, in the way that’s best for both of them. Their life is different before the children are born, because that time they live for each other, love and gladness fill their hearts adding tender beauty. In the early days of marriage they come to know each other and start their life with eagerness to know about each other. It’s a bed of roses in the beginning. As days go on and when they know more about each other there will be small fights and arguments. If they adjust with each other then life goes on smoothly. In olden days there were mostly arranged marriages only and however the husband may be they used to adjust and they used to regard their husband as God. There were less of love marriages those days. When the girl gets married every one at her place will advise her to be true to her husband, to adjust with everyone in the family and respect the elders and do what the elders tell them. Girls also used to belike that. Those days the parents never used to take them back. Any problems in inlaw’s house, they used to tell the girl only to adjust. So some girls never used to tell their parents about their problems and solve the problems themselves.

    Once the children are born the husband and wife become more close to each other. The wife sometimes gives more importance to the children . She spends more time with the children and teaches them the good things in life. She has the duty of bringing up the child in a good manner. If the child is good everyone will give credit to the mother only for bringing up the child. In those days girl children were brought up with more care as they have to be married in proper age. If they don’t get married at the correct time they used to get worried. Sometimes the mother does not know whose side to take because for her the children are also important and husband also. If the child is good the husbands take credit and say its my son or daughter. But if the child is not good then they will say its all your upbringing to the wife. Previously girls were not allowed to go out much so they did not know the world much . They used to study only upto X and then they were married. Some girls never used to study much.

    Now times have changed girls study more and they are given choice to select their partners. Girls also want a good educated and well settled boy with all the facilities.
    There are many love marriages. Some marriages break up after engagement , some after marriage as they cant adjust with each other..

    Now a days people are not so much happy as before. Where there is understanding and adjustment between the couples , those marriages are successful.

    Dear Viji,

    The above statement is so true.

    In old days, I feel, girls were more understanding and adjusting than their husbands. And I guess that is what they are expected to do. If the husband is a nice person then the relation flourishes otherwise the wife will have to bear everything tongue-tied. This might be because she was very helpless, completely dependent on her husband for herself and their children and would have no one to go if her husband and family ditches her. She had to bear with the physical and psychological torture given by her husband and her in-laws.

    These days women are more empowered and have become a lot more independent. This gives them an opportunity to raise their voice if injustice is being committed against them.

    Marriage is a beautiful institution which requires both husband and wife to be cooperative, caring and loving.

    Dear Viji,

    Marriage is for life time provided there is no abuse in the relationship. Differences in taste, preference , habits shd not be the cause for break up of marriage unless irreconcileable differences are there.

    Lots of adjustments and live and let live policy will make it easier
