Marriage or the shackles

Marriage is known as the social acceptance of a relationship between couples as well as life partners. A marriage is beautiful and heavenly as long as it's between two right people, but finding the right partner is not so easy, and naturally, many times people are entangled with the wrong person, and the relationship becomes toxic. So many of them end up separating. In many countries, men also need to share half of their assets with their wives if separation happens. For such a reason, many don't want to get married.

There are also many women who think marriage is one kind of shackle and restricts their freedom. They don't want to restrict themselves, and they want freedom all the time. In recent times, such kinds of thoughts have increased in the minds of many people. Even after having kids, people are interested in single parenting. Is it a good thing? It can be considered good and bad depending on the situation, but from the overall perspective, I don't think that it's something good. Because it shows that the trust between couples is decreasing, and without mature trust, it's very difficult to maintain a healthy relationship.

Aside from that reason, most people are afraid of marriage because, at the present time, the economic condition of most countries is not so good, and the prices of all necessary products have increased. Getting married in a traditional way costs a lot. Even in a simple marriage, it costs so much that it may take 1 year to earn that amount of money. So many of them think that getting married is a financial burden, and they are afraid of it and try to avoid marriage.

The relationship of a married couple runs on mutual trust and having the mentality to adapt to the situation. Women empowerment is a good thing, but it is also a reason why many women are getting arrogant and don't want to compromise, as they are self-dependent, and their self-pride can also be a reason they don't want to contribute to a relationship. Again, there are issues with men also. Some men also don't like women to be self-dependent, as they think women should be inside the house and take care of the family. It's the old way of thinking, and some men are not ready to adapt to the change as women empowerment is happening. It can also lead to separation.

It's a world of equality where both men and women are equal by right. Instead of that, in some cases men need to adapt to the thoughts of their wives, and in some cases, women also need to adapt to the thoughts of their husbands. That's how a relationship can be balanced. Unfortunately, at the present time, both women and men have become arrogant and try to prove themselves better than each other, and because of that, many people are trying to avoid marriage. Humans are not as understanding as they were in the earlier days, and naturally, the trust of people is not as solid as it was in the earlier days, which leads to situations where there is not enough faith in a relationship, and because of that reason many people are not so interested in being bound by marriage.
