Dear Maneetian,

That is so sweet. I have known my husband for 11 years, but we have only been in a relationship together for 7. We were friends for 4 years before that, actually enemies for 1 and friends for 3. 😆College stuff.

Thank you for your good wishes. I do love my husband, I adore him even after all these years.

Yes, live in relationships do work, its not all fun and games. Both have to contribute equally to the household and relationship else it wont work. But living together lets you learn if the other one is going to pull their weight.

To all the fabulous strong women,

I don't know why I didn't mention this before. But I am writing an FF and guess what in my FF Geet and Maan are not together even though they are totally in love and Geet raises her baby on her own. She gets an education and is now self sufficient.

Don't worry it is still a romantic FF, just with strong women in it.

Hope you all give it a chance, let me know what you all think about it.

wow interesting topic................personally speaking coming from an conservative background and the moral and liberal values that I have been instilled with.........I still prefer live-in-relationships, this is because through live-in-relationships u get to know ur partner really well, then once ur sure that he is the mr perfect, all you have to do is give the relationship a new name thorugh a marriage institution ofcourse and commit urself to each other..........to be honest I have never really bothered about what the society acccepts or does not accept, if i feel that whatever I am doing is right then I will go and achieve that thing irrespective of whatever the society thinks.........living with social norms is like the society having a control over your life...........which i find totally obnoxius and obscene........so cuming back 2 ur question.......no i have no qualms about maaneet getting into a live-in-relationship before marriage as it will giv thema chance to get to know each other..........but lol looking at geets upbringing and moral values i don't think she wud ever agree.........(Hope it makes sense).........not intended to hurt anyone.....purely my POV......

I agree with your personal opinion and applaud every single word! 👏

Regarding Geet, and the character, people change with circumstances and the trails by fire they had to undergo. Geet is not a complete individual yet, she is growing into her own slowly. Her metamorphosis is yet to be complete, she is still a child woman, the day she becomes a complete woman, her choices may be different. Has she not defied society to have a child from a fake marriage despite the easiest option would have been family approved abortion?

So I am thinking the Geet creatives have planned something unique for us, let's wait and watch.

Regards,
Bri

I have been brought up in a semi-orthodox atmosphere and have been really attached to all hindu customs and tradtions. I don't think that a live-in-relationship should be a desicion of the two only. As many of you have said it does have its positive sides but it also has its negative points. Nevertheless, I truly believe that a woman does have a lot more at stake then a man. She not only carries her own reputation she carries her parents reputation as well. Its easy to just say oh its so we understand each other better, learn about each other and so forth. But as someone said, what if the relationship doesn't work out. Then what?? Our society is the nicest, they will throw a million taunts at the parents and their raising. The same happens when a daughter come back home after being divorced or sent home from her in-laws. Therefore, if one chooses that path, I honestly believe it should be a mutial decision between both familys to allow the live-in-relationship.

Whether I would allow it or do it myself, the answer is no. If you truly and honestly love the person then there won't be a need to live-in. I knew my husband 10 years before we got married. We dated for 7 years prior to the marriage. We didn't live together but we were very close and open about our likes and dislikes. My mom didn't see my dad until their first night, and they are succesfully married. Both my sisters have had arranged marriages and knew the guy for no more then two weeks prior the marriage. They are also very happily married with kids. So it is not that we need to have live-in relationships to have succesful marriage or to bring down divorce rates or so forth. Frankly speaking the more modern thinking that india tries to impliment on traditional views, more problems are created, like abuse, divorce, cheating and so forth. And I am not saying we shouldn't have any modern thinking, thats y I said semi-orthodox, but somethings should be kept the way they have always been. Marriages don't need live-in relationships to be succesful, but needs good understanding, learn to agree to disagree, good communication, learn to comprimise, respect and last but not least love.

However for a few members I would request that you keep in mind the words that you use as we do have quite a young age group who visit the forum as well!😳
