why so much uproar
by rashmi chandel on Jul 25, 2007 12:17 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

What one expects from a relationship? an obvious reply is trust, love and emotional security. And this requirement is common for every human, irrespective of whichever religion or culture u belong to.
When it comes to spending whole life with somebody what matters more is that these emotional requirements may get fulfilled. In thousands of cases they are not met in a marriage. At the same time, live in sort of relations also do not guarantee a full life relationship, it stands true.
But, being involved in a live in relationship or being part of a marriage is a matter of individual decision. Which, One should be free enough to take.
Uproar on this issue, just for the sake of preserving cultural identity is questionable. How can anybody claim that there is no place for bonding or attachment is such relations? It is far, far better than a marriage that exists without love. Because, in a live in relationship what keeps two p'pl together is mutual trust and love, and not enjoyment.

Live in relationship is not at all advisable at least in indian culture and elsewhere as well, iam indian i respect our traditional values and this will permit us to invoke this kind of relation ship, when i talk relgious point of you, ISLAM and hinduism, it is not at all permissable, we are human so we have to obey to what our religion says, do not conflict.
