basically i live in a country where there is tremendous importance for marraige.. for a guy the ideal age for marraige is from 21 to 27.. it is like he should get married in this age and if he doesn't the family members, neighbours, friends all start bugging the guys parents that why isn't he getting married?.... and this continues till the poor guy is finally married.. if he doesn't get married till suppose 30 or 35 people start saying all kinds of things about the guy... they aren't ashamed to spread a rumour to even say that the guy is an impotent or a gay... and now the worst part... the above scenario is very bad in case of the girls... the ideal age for marraige of a girl is 18 to 24.. not to mention about child marraiges which are still in practice in some of the villages... if a girl doesn't get married for long the people make the girls and her parents life hell.. do you believe in marraiges or are u the live-in relation type??

Yes ofcourse marriages are important... yes ofcourse it always happens that if a guy does not get married within a certain age then lot of things crop up and same for the girls too. in some culture they get married which ever age they want and nobody speaks anything about it.

in my country marriage isn't that important anymore. people get married and get divorced. personally i probably won't get married for a while or i won't get married at all. i love my boyfriend but i don't know if i want to get married to him yet. if i get pregnant then i will marry him. i don't want to have a child out of wedlock. my boyfriend has lived with me for a year. i've heard of people treating people like crap in other countries until they get married. personally i think it's wrong but in the religious and country views this might be their job.
