And I know I generalized. But after all these incidents, I kinda lost faith in it. Before I was a great supporter of live-in.Nidaa C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15289774987660146333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1897123856240347285.post-5306891737246227782012-09-09T21:22:06.374-07:002012-09-09T21:22:06.374-07:00Let's face it...the above would have occurred ...Let's face it...the above would have occurred even if the two partners had been married without living together. Sadly, it's not the live-in relationship that is the cause of the problem but the manner in which men treat women in India. While it is a generalisation, most men do not know how to treat women decently and society feeds into that by blaming the woman for everything. I have lived with my partner (albeit not in India) and while things haven't worked out for us, it wasn't because he was abusive.

But when I think about the pros, its worth taking the risks.<br />There are relationships which the families doesnt approve.In those cases rather than waiting for the approval and wasting your youth I would say go ahead and live in with your partner. The uncertainty part will fade away if you stop thinking that a person should have only one partner in their whole life.I mean we think(atleast girls I guess) a lot before having sex with a guy. We feel like losing virginity is a big thing.<br />And also it gives the freedom(easier than getting a divorce) for you to move on incase it doesnt work out. <br /><br />But yeah, you are talking based on your experiences. I may change at anytime. But for now, living in rocks..:)vipinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02146017720228354842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1897123856240347285.post-34658376289914132902012-06-24T11:06:56.872-07:002012-06-24T11:06:56.872-07:00Its not that I support marriage than live-in.

Emotional insecurity is much much more in live-in, and unlike in the west, live-ins are secret here... And that's what my friends' experiences show... <br />Dya think this constant fear of family finding out and uncertainty about the partner helps?Nidaa C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15289774987660146333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1897123856240347285.post-83846488013281168882012-06-18T07:40:52.074-07:002012-06-18T07:40:52.074-07:00Even though i have never been in a relationship, ...Even though i have never been in a relationship, I support live-in than marriage.<br />The cases of your friends may be true, but when you think about it, all these - being possessive,beating etc can happen even after marriage.vipinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02146017720228354842noreply@blogger.com
