I have read almost all of this crap! Let me clear my position first, I am absolutely in favour of Live-in, though I have some doubts about the inheritence issues, single parenthood issues etc. and I think our legal framework will adopt soon to resolve those. Personally I have been in two such relationships one after another; the first one didn't work, the other did and we're happily married thereafter. I have a teen-age daughter, and if AFTER securing her own career and economic independence she moves in with her boyfriend I would respect her decision. At the same time, I am proudly an Indian, probably far more patriotic than any of these guys who oppose an open relationship. Point is, sociologically it's a taboo only among the typical middleclass. At the bottom of the social pyramid they don't care for marriage, they just move in, and whatever ceremony is there is meant for informing the kinsmen and celebrating the new couple. Take the tribal marriages for example. This is consensual marriage. The fuss remains only where you have to win the bride as a family property and then mark the property with Sindoor, confine her with Kara etc. Try to understand the rituals of what you call Hindu marriage. Well, not only Hindu/Hindi, the christian and muslim marriage also do the same thing. The grooms family acquires a bride for procreating more of the clan, 'putraarthe kriyate bharya', and in my view live-in relationship is more of a consensual marriage than that. Let reality decide.

Sure sir! My email Id is not going to change and please get in touch after 15 years or so. I hope, just hope, that your son (legitimate one) will be wiser than you. By the way I am not into counting my wife's former men, just like your wife never counted how many times you were caught in the red light area! She never cheated on me, and that's what counts. Problem is when you guys marry, you marry a HYMEN not a woman! Pity you. And by the way, your son will not decide whether to live in with my daughter, my daughter will decide that. However, if you are his father, I see very little hope in this line.

hmm.. Mr Parthapratim.. uhave written a nice reply.. but I may tell u that is ur daughter legitimate.. u need to get the checkups done.. coz the artificial people like u who r carried away by western culture and dollars might not know.. about the legitimate children.. so get the things done at ur end and then sent these kind of messages to other people.. coz ur very first message gives a clear picture about ur self and ur mentality.. also I was just joking that my son wud like to stay with ur daughter.. OK ... he will not do this.. coz we are Indian and we know our limitations.. and restrictions and we are not animal.. who starts anything anywhere.... I hope u can understand....

Look at another moron like Sukhi.. cant even have a proper conversation. If somebody talks sense, then they take it personally and then they start talking about women in others house.. Sukhi is one example.. And unfortunately he is also an Indian!!!

Hey Partha, congrats to you. Really appreciate your forhright thoughts. You are right on target. For most people is is just clinging to some God damn old traditions. In the name of culture and relgion they would not mind even killing anyone.
