So ok! the show is kinda out there…but whatever! so back to writing and commenting…and also I kind of missed you guys! Though I get touch …

Ok! so here goes I liked one thing which was unique last night when Shaan said will be like be Mom and Dad 30 years from now

…I think that great question to ask young couples…do we loose love in marriage…does compatibility take over…passion what holds a marriage love in other words…a routine, a familiarity….

I ask all the married women in this what is marriage and do we keep compromising to keep it going …

You know 30 years is a long time to stay married.Most people within few months of their marriage start to lose interest,so crossing that 25 year barracade is a huge acheivement.With the rise in divorce rate,i mean this doesn't only go for the West but it applies for India as well,staying married forever is kind of rare.I mean surely no couple can maintain the same sort of passion and promise that they started their marriage off with.When couples start off it is just 2 of them then gradually it becomes the 4 of them or 5 of them etc.Especially if both the parents want to climb up that success ladder in their workplace ,I mean where is the time for romance?.I mean some people would say, you need to make the time,family comes first.But that is easier said than done right?.Whatever parents do,they do for their family,for their kids to make sure their kids are not deprived of anything and in doing all this the couple in question loses touch with their love life coz their focus is now on other things . During the course of time if we fall out of love with that person,there is no point staying married and leading an unhappy life,but if we do love that person as much as we did 20 or 30 years ago ,but circumstances have caused us to drift apart,i mean couples can always work on that.Classic example of Sunil and Madhavi.I mean they do love eachother.They are not in a loveless marriage,but lack of communication,inability to balance work and personal life has landed them in this situation.I mean if Madhavi had to go out and work she would have understood Sunils situation and likewise. I mean nobody can help you over here the people in question have to take the initiative if they want to make their marriage work for a long period of time.

hmmm
as of now i m newly married..but I think our love mayb bcoz an arranged marriage had only increased..
and of now we are much young and after some 10 years we will lose our passion but not our love..wo junoon kho jaayenge lekin wo mohabbat badhti hi jaayenge
and we will be occupied like children,family vagera vagera but people enjoy themselves as parents and a new bond is formed between the two....
bas itna hi ki pyaar mein passion ko mat doondho doondhna hai to aur gehri pyaar doondho

hey dear wooster thanx for the post!! well i have to say the same thing more or less like sehju!! as time grows on the couple the demands of life leave them with very little time for each other plus once children are there they always take the centre stage...
however it cannot be denied that teeh couple who married and happen to each other truly then have the undercurrent of love always and deep inside their heart that untold unexpressed love over the years still lies.. waiitng for a chan ce to show itself..
so in most cases incl my mum and dad i have seen they are much closer after marrying off us children and they spend more time together now a days.. so it is all stages of life and the demands from time to time..
having said that in modern times like sehju pointed out if both the couples are too much professsionaly inclined then they may not have time fore each other and may drift apart..
so care must be taken to balance life because marriage is very demanding especially for girls whatever be the technological age be!!!
and even today girls are always expected to work hard to maked their marriages successful this cannot be denied..men are forgiven that tit is their nature to be complacent and relaxed but females are not.tehy are expected to excel everywhere and i am very happy to note that most females are gladly doing very well in this challenge.

Wooster, I think , why only marriage all relationships for that matter with whomever we hold are based on compromise. I feel wherever there is care, compromise is sure to exist. The care I mentioned may have different meanings...
If a person cares abt a loved one ... (say a parent compromises with a unruly son/daughter's be due to love)
If a person cares abt ones career .. ( I am sure many of us have compromised with our feelings with teachers/office-boss)
If a person cares to obtain some material from someone .. (son/daughter who compromises n lives with parent to get the property)
If the person cares abt one's sustenance...(children who just live with parents..until they are independent ..and not due to love)
Ppl like me who live in apartments/ as PG.... (they know hw much they have to compromise with common thngs)
So to smoothly sail any relationship...compromise is needed....as each person is an individual...and never can any 2 ppl agree on thngs always.
If we dont care abt somthing...then ofcourse we never compromise...this applies to marriage..as well.
