Marriages in India

Even in today's world, people think of others when it comes to marriage of their children or relatives. What other people will think is more important than where the happiness of the couple lies. People will call us names if you marry that guy, people will make fun of you if you marry that girl. These are the sort of things my generation hears from their parents – sad reality. We are in the 21st century for Christ's sake. Every other page on the internet has photos and quotes about how you should love yourself, how you should do what makes you happy, but all of that is just first class bullshit. Who follows that anyway? I want to marry a girl who doesn’t have the same social position as me, but I cant. Why? – Because people will call me names. I want to marry a guy who is not an engineer, but I cant. Why? – Because there are other guys who have an engineering degree ready to marry you, then why would you marry someone who isn’t an engineer?

When will we leave these old thinking behind and truly live in the 21st century?
