I am always confused when people use the word "Love" loosely.
I live in a country where almost 100% of the couples swear undying love for each other (what ever that means😡) and live together and experience everything before they tie the knot.
Popping the big question
Acknowledging they "love" each other
Screaming from roof tops,
Making out in elevators
Making out in parks in restaurants, in public places
Making babies even
And yet
7 out of 10 couples divorce within the first 5 years of marriage.
Saying I love you, does not mean anything.
Like Saaz says its just a teen fantasy, that sells a million Hallmark cards.
Most arranged marriages in india there is No declaration of love, not after the first month, not at the 50th wedding anniversary.
Its not necessary. There is an unspoken bond, there is a need, there is a sense of belonging that surpasses any verbal statements.
This word and the terms "Complete understanding" "emotional compatibility" and "maturity" completely baffle me.
I just dont understand those words. They all indicate relationships that start with a capital B for boring!
They are simply pictures of an ideal world that unmarried people often strive for, and feel let down when they are unable to achieve
Full maturity, understanding, "being on the same page" "emotional maturity" etc make relationships boring
I congratulate the couples that live in and women who want such boredom.
If my husband agrees with me on everything or if I sit down and have a three hour meeting with him everynite, there would be no fun left in the relationship
My fictional leads are not going to have it. Its a story of a 27 year old and a 24 year old 😲😕. I cannot make it geriatric/senior citizen friendly.
Sorry!
Friction creates a grip, smooth roads skid
Read it for time pass, like I am writing it for the same reason
Shaan and khanak will live with each other, make unreasonable, idiotic demands on each other, be irrational and jump to conclusions, will be insecure and possessive.
I just cannot write a story where the lead couple are constantly agreeing with each other or constantly gushing about the other, or constantly appreciating the other
90% of Indian marriages occur without the physical compatibility test, yet they lead good lives. If we keep waiting for 100% emotional compatibility and understanding then no couple would ever be able to tie the knot.
It aint happenin.
