"Marriage – A process of finding out what sort of person your spouse would have preferred to marry”
It is not merely because I disliked learning that I stayed single. True, I am allergic to learning, especially about myself, since most of what I learn about myself is SO uncomplimentary. Still, it was not that at all.
To cut the long story short, it was my aversion to WORK that decided me on remaining single. Narayana Murthy’s son can choose to marry, even if he decided to be idle all his life. Me – I started off with zilch in inheritances and, thus, all that I spend had to be earned myself. Even in these gender-equal days, there is not much welcome for a husband who plans to live off your earnings. THAT part of gender inequality still remains, unfortunately. (Fortunately, actually. In my times, it certainly existed and I’d hardly be happy seeing a young kid of today happily living the life that I would have preferred to live.)

DeleteThere are pros and cons on either side. Depends on which pros you like better ;) But it's better if one marries, when one finds that connect instead of marrying because one is just the right 'marriageable' age.
ReplyDeleteTrue that :)
