Re: In this day and age.
I wonder the same thing…
but for reals: I think the rules that the elders came up with about minimum contact before shaadi was meant for people like me. If I can opt out of a relationship if I’m super annoyed then, I probably would. Whereas, when you’re married you can’t just leave a person because they’re annoying you. Little things, in my experience, cause large , unnecessary problems in couples where they’re not married. Whereas married couples are often able to cope with much larger problems. Just my take.
