Entering into your twenties or getting a job makes one a potential candidate for the act for seven promises. Atleast this is very common in India, where your surroundings make a lot of impact on you rather than your self conscious. In some families , one does not even get a chance to choose his own career options, so thinking about choosing a partner is a crime for them. The first step is to look for one in a locality, family friends, known/unknown ones and after that uploading a filthy picture with heavy makeup and decent looks on the matrimonial. If the profile matches, a meeting is called upon . The hookup includes parents from both sides , the candidates And some very unimportant , talkative uncles and aunties who have no other work to do , rather than preaching about what the conditions should be. The selling price of the bride is decided , yeah i am mentioning about the dowry, the prices soar high if the to be groom is a engineer or a MBA , yah recent trends bitch. Wait, did somebody just forget to ask if they like each other or are compatible with each other or not . I mean, how can one even be so sure about someone in just one meeting, even i disliked pizza for the very first time but i craved for it after the second feast. Sometimes their opinion is of no importance at all as the elders say “ You really think , we will fetch you a douchebag for a marriage”. Yah , they might be right, but the question arises if they are not , then what? Several questions are asked , past relationships, virginity, being the prime important ones. Alas! do they really matter ? If you are found a culprit then the so called society sues you for a BAD CHARACTER . The seven so called VOWS taken during a marriage are of mere importance and more of a mockery. The issue is of the TRUST, which can only be obtained by giving some more time to each other, rather than getting married in third meeting.
