Why do women want to marry??

If you are reading this post now, you may start thinking why have I chosen such a topic. Well, I've come across so many instances where women are more possessed and zeal to get married. Last week I saw this wonderful and amazing movie "He's just not that into you" starring Ben Affleck as Neil Jones and Jennifer Aniston as Beth Bartlett. They both love each other and have been living in the same apartment for 7yrs. Although Beth wants to get married, Neil does not believe in signing a piece of paper to say you love someone. He doesn't believe in the instution called marriage where you have to spend a lot just to express your love and committment to each other. His explanation is when two best friends care and love each other, have responsibility and committment why do you need a certificate or rather proof for that? Beth is everything for Neil in his life, but why is she insisting him to get married? Doesn't that makes sense? Before you guys pounce and squall on me, let me be frank I do believe in an institution called marriage. But after watching this movie, a thought struck to me. Why women wants to get married?


Imagine this: On Saturday evening one couple walks into the cafe. They order crème frappe and the girl sits opposite her date and starts sipping it. She runs her hand through her hair, thinking he is one made for her. She had decided that she would marry him and already started dreaming about family and kids. That's the reason she even bothered to go out with him. She was visualizing her life ahead, thinking not to fight with her mother-in-law, sister-in-law, father-in-law, and yes of course to become best grand daughter-in-law. She also knew that with time and affection, she would become better person of that guy, who is right now checking the girl seated on the opposite table wearing minis.


Girl: Stop checking out that girl in minis।
Boy: What? Me? Girl? Checking? where? Who? I wasn't seeing anyone.
Girl: hmm....so tell me what was I saying?

Boy, who is caught totally off guard, thinks hard but his brain is still stuck at those smooth unending legs on the opposite table. So, to save himself from all the tsunami he is about to face, he handles the situation very cautiously.


Boy: I love you jaan..

Girl: Really? Cho chweet of you. Did you talk to your parents about us?

Well this is the most common thing that is going to happen if you are in a relationship for more than an year or so. This is the problem with Indian woman, they view dating solely in terms of marriage. Nowadays colleges and offices are the marriage bureaus. U remember the coke commercial in which a guy and a girl introduce their parents to each other, that's exactly the situation today.






A woman of course has always been categorically told that her in-law’s place is her real home. Most of them try to lead life like their sister or anyone who is in good relationship in her family. They try to follow them in every aspect. Even the most coveted females are not untouched by the prehistoric bug. “We are social animals and have been brought up with the concept of permanent families. For a woman, marriage is all about security. Even women who are doing very well professionally want a man who can ‘support’ them. That they do not need the support is a different story.

Even at the end of this post I cant figure out “why do women want to marry?” If you are a women reading this please enlighten me. :D

My view on tis topic is, India is a cluster of various kinds of societies, n i cum from one wer, ghar ki izzat is of utmost importance, Gals from a society lik mine n a middle class family wil always think of parents first, n then bout anythin els, n al tat's thr in their mind is marriage of their daughter:) Basically gals wanna marry coz they want social n financial security not oly in faith, but als in a piece of paper so tat she wont b blamed by the society at the end of the day...... UNderstood??

In a country lik India,marriage is mandatory for gals as wa Nams said,marriage is als wer u find yo soul partner wid whom one wud wish 2 spend d whole life..it's a decision of a lyftim...as wat DKsaid, a woman of dis generation can oly choose a person bttr 4 her dan nyone els.marriage als meansin finding a gud fren in one's partner bt parents fear dat their daughter might nt choose d rite guy dat sense of providin a secure life as wat dey provided till now makes parents prefer arranged marriages.If parents agree 4 one's choice den its a celebration!!!

Women............very strange breed of beings(nange artha aagilla andre in paapaa uldavru gati???)I read in a survey once that a women wants a man in their life however he maybe(good,bad,ugly,abusive....)its one weakness im ready to admit we have....its very hard for a lady to let go in relationships......but the root cause of this insecurity is the treatment they have undergone at the hands of the male variety for centuries...........sad but true.... the good news is this its beginning to change bit by bit..........so one day...hopefully.......We'll be able to live on our own(without the mental block!!!):)

dk first of all its a good topic.lemme speak bout the indian women n marriage.of course indian women take marriage as the consequence of dating.the reason is simple.its INDIAN SOCIETY.that is where they,v n all indians r born n brought up.they r deeply connected to it n strictly follow its principles except for few.
a typical indian gal goes on a date wid a fear in her.the fear of the society n of course of her parents.but still she goes on a date wid a guy because she noes that he would marry her one day..
If she thinks the way u think r if the guy doesn't marry her,she'll definitely answered by the society..gotit????

apoorva said...

hey karpur.. nice one.. i dont agree wid u though.. the point is if ur in a real good relationship u SURELY will want to marry ... i guess u haven't really experienced a woman yet..once u find one u ll be wanting to marry her more than anythin else. LOL..

Unknown said...

u no wat? to be true i totally agree tat v don need any proof to show someone tat u love them.. it definitely is not necessary to marry till u hav someone to give u the care, attention and love unconditionally..
its not tat only girls wanna marry, its tat most of the women wanna marry and its surely on the way their thinkin goes....
if u needan answer i need to study psycology.. :P
can u lemme no, y in this kinda society, now a days, its talked abt a lot if a girl doesn wanna get married and its never bothered if a guy remains single forever??? v hav the rite to choose our decisions, its afterall our life tat v hav to live even if v marry the one our parents choose or the one v choose....
P.S: sorry if its too long to read... :(

Unknown said...

IF there was no rule tat v hav to marry, anyone wud be happy to love without fallin into the tangles of marriage!!! man never wants to tie a knot,its "the knot" tat makes him get into relationships... (here man is any freakin human ok?)
hav observed a lot, once ppl r in love, they wanna think abt marriage...is it like "When you finally find someone
who you want to spend the rest of your life with,
you want the rest of your life to start right away."?????

aaaaaah! i don understand, Y ONE WANTS TO MARRY? its like u r giving someone all the rights to destroy u nd only thing is tat u TRUST tat they wont.... :)

PS- its jus my view, it doesn matter if anyone doesn agree also. no intensions to hurt anyone.
