Was I Wrong ?

I got engaged to a female but, the relationship fell off within 4 months.
The Girl was too demanding. She wanted me to leave my parents after marriage. She wanted me to stay with her parents after marriage. She wanted to to join her father's business. She was putting all possible constraints on me.
She wanted me to give her expensive gifts every time I visited her. And, she wanted me to be with her 24/7.
I know all you people in here would not know her part of the story. But, this is my part. And, I put an end to a relationship. An end to a relationship in which I would have lost my own identity.

If I am going to base my decision to what you've just said. I just think you did a great job!!! I am a woman, but I also believe that there are lots of people who are really materialistic and bossy and if you're up to a good and harmonious family life, you better watch out and avoid this kind of women. Don't worry, you'll still find "real" people in this world.And I'm sure you'll find "the one" for you.

What the hell? why would you still want to live with your parents after you are married. Just so your wife could be their servant as well as yours? Be a man, live in your own house andlet your wife be the matron of her own place, not the house servant of either your or her parents. You obviously didn't love the girl so she is lucky to be rid of you.

Cultural difference is the correct answer that I would like to give to you.
What I meant was....... she wanted me to leave my parents and stay in a place which was close to her parents.
I loved her very much....... But, I could not take her demands as I was loosing my own identity

But you still think thatlivingwithyour parents after marriage is a good thing. And by the way, i've talked to more than afew Indian women. Men who refuse to leave their mommy's house marry girls simply to give their mother a house servant to beat. Like I said. Be a man and live in your own house!

It is never wrong to end a relationship that would make you un-happy.I thought that you get married to join with someone. Not lose yourself in the relationship.It suppose to be based on love and respect for one other.You did the right thing. The way it was starting, it wouldn't have lasted and could have ended real badly. I hope you will fing someone to marry that will love you for you. Not for the expensive gifts you buy her. Someone who will let you be yourself. Not try to make you into someone else.Take care.
