Re: Marriage and education
I don’t know if even this is a valid statement.
There are unmarried women I know that are in their mid 30’s and when a rishta is offered to them they will turn it down without even asking any other details if the guy doesn’t have a Masters or PhD.
While these ladies may have book smarts (and I’m not even sure that having a Masters means that you have book smarts) and even mediocre careers (cuz it’s not like their degrees have gotten them $250K salaries or the title of VP), they seem to be oblivious to the fact that the clock is ticking and at some point or other they will have to compromise on something.
There is definitely personal choice involved but if it’s to the detriment of other things that contribute to the quality of life then you have to question the person’s priorities.
