I agree with angelic.. it depends on the situation as to why the person was divorced. That tells a lot about that person. The nature of a human being does not change that much.

Marrying a divorcee is not wrong at all . Many of my family members got married after being divorced. They are all living happily.

Naturally they looked into reasons as to why the divorces happened and they weighed it ..pros and cons and then made the decision.

It's nice that they are getting married😊

But when the girl's parents are divorced.
The situation is even more difficult.😔

I had never, and neither would in future hold any negative feelings for any divorcee unless i know his/her history...even then why should i keep negative feelings for the person if he/she is not affecting my life.
But i will be consicious and know full facts about the person if i am or any of my close relation is getting involved with that divorcee...you cannot trust someone so easily in such world...remember that divorcee girl who came for Jagya's proposal...how her family was even though they told that it was groom's fault for the divorce.
I sometimes feel bad when people specially women taunt any other woman for being widow or divorcee...in Dor(film) an old lady said very apt dialouge to other lady(the saas) who was stopping her widow DIL from stepping out of kothari she said ''ye mat bholo ki kabhi tum bhi iss chaukhat par khadi hogi''...one should never taunt or make fun of other's situation because one may never know but God forbid even they may find themselves in same situation in future.
sometimes i feel that if an girl or boy is not happy and is not able to adjust with their spouses then divorce can be taken and should be...i have an example in my family...a boy married a girl in of his parent's choice but later on girl turned out to be wrong...she was moody and took care of nothing...half the time she was roaming here and there and once she left house when her MIL was seriously ill...basically someone like Saanchi...later on she left house in anger and after few months she returned back...everyone feels it's a good thing but i feel that even if such marriages work there has to be so much compromise in it and that too from one side only...one can clearly see that boy and girl are of no match and yet they have made them work out their marriage...divorce is not an easy thing for anyone but if a relation makes u suffocate rather than share your life's joy and sadness then what's the use of such marriage. Small issues happen everywhere but if they same thing happens continously and makes one's life stressful than what the use.

I would mostly avoid any rishta like Anandi's because:-
She was not ready herself
She was so attached to her ex-husband and his family that she was ready to do anything (taking care of Jagya and crying for him in front of present husband)
sorry i am very average human and have not got patience like Shiv to handle such drama specially for my spouse's ex.
Anandi is a very good girl and apt choice for being wife or DIL but what she did before marriage was not something i will ever support...i will literally get insecure in relation with such confusing signals

i will have to think a lot before accepting for a relation like Jagya...most probably no because i doubt i will be able to have faith in that person after knowing his past.

There is a saying never judge a book by its cover, but sadly people do. Divorce is quite common theses days and everyone hopes they will never go through one but situations changes and dependent on the relationship, if it abusive one then I think it's always better to get out, if people are really unhappy in their marriage and really can't fix it then its better to separate then spend years and years miserable together when you could be happy with someone else,

I think people have to be mature and open to new things when thinking about marriage as you could potentially loose a good soul mate due to nit picking- picking faults in everyone and everything. Things are not always going to be perfect in the potential partner or inlaws you have to be willing to adjust and adapt to things like they have to.

I would say the guy had a lucky escape, I'm quite sad that the girl didn't go against her mother and stick with this guy, she obviously had her fathers wishes. The guy is better off out of it a mother as superstition as that would have wreaked the marriage some day better it ended at the start. The daughter would just have to live with the fact she made the wrong decision to please her mother. The guy needs to get a few sentences ready that sums up the divorcee status, stating it was only registry wedding that was ended, they had not lived together and it was dues to problems on the brides side that the brides side called it all off.

I want to share a story from one of my husbands relatives. this boy was working out of India. He came back for holidays and as per parents wishes started looking for arranged marriage matches for himself. He liked a simple Indian girl and because he wanted to take her away with her to his country of residence they quickly went for registry marriage. then he went off to his country.

the realtionship was going good, both side parents and families were very happy...suddenly in our local community magazine my Mother in law found an 'looking for bride' add with this guy's photo !

after further inquiries we found out that the boy's parents were not happy with the girl anymore and asked him divorce/breakoff! the reason given by the boy's mother /father to us was they had to take the girl for one family function (pooja) and they asked her to wear a saree for the ocassion and she denied because she said she is uncomfortable in a saree. and then they started disliking her!

Then they got him married second time again arranged marriage and he gave up his job and settled in India,this girl was an MBA and was working on a very high position in a company, the father of the boy asked her to come home early to cook even though he knew she had work related commitments and due to her position in the company has to attend them. Then the in laws denied her to watch tv and asked her only to do bhajans of god instead..for an educated lady it started getting highly intolerable.


So the couple started staying separately. even then they had issues ..the boy was earning quite a decnet salary himself. The girl had only her father in her maayka and wanted to give her entire salary to her father to which the boy opposed. then they both divorced...

Now this boy has met someone new via online chatting and has recently married this girl - third time!


I hope everything falls in place for him this time and they live happily ever after😉
