The countries that feel girls are burden and treat them badly are mostly in the Middle East and Asia. In South and Central America you might find a couple of countries too. Is a good thing that the rest of the world is not like that.

Hi triplejazzm51. That's is a very good example of couples that make the best out of that kind of relationships. Also, like I've said before, some people are content with less. It does not require a lot to make them happy (or conformed?)

Hi PrincessThinker. It's very nice to hear this kinds of stories. At the time of your parents this was even more common. I know for sure that after they see their children, and the joy and pround they feel, it's all worth it.

Hi Binthu. Appreciation is a good word. For a woman, being well treated by her boyfriend/husband, with respect and love, it's priceless. Some couples are madly in love when they get married, and a few months after, they're killing each other.

It is not very wise to get married after 2 months (even if you are 40 and desperate). If you're just 30 years old you really can spend 1 or 2 years getting to know your boyfriend. No matter if you're in the relationship in love or just out of convenience, you must end it if the other half is mistreating you (physically or emotionally). She made a mistake in marrying him so soon, but at leas...

Yes, I agree that you can find out later on he wasn't the right person for you and the best is to date for at least 2 years before tying the knot. If he's not the right guy you shouldn't lose his (and your time). However, the red flags always show while you are dating, but some of us ignore them, hoping that he/she will change after the marriage. This just never happens; on the contrary, it...

Hi Bluepatch. If you know one woman in that situation, I can say you have a good idea what we're talking about and how hard it's is for us women. Being a man you know that guys are very different in this regard (also). There's no stress over "getting old" "being alone" (since you guys rarely are alone). Happy to hear abut your marriage. I hope your friend can get a break from the others.

Hi Smileonstar. All relationships (married or not) have some issues, small arguments and conflicts. We learn to deal and/or live with it (and hopefully learn and smooth things out quickly). If the issues are too difficult to handle in the long term (you're feeling too hurt, or angry about them), both of you need to talk it out or get a family therapist to help in the solution. If none of th...

Hi getbrowser. You are right, there is no "love" at first sight. That is just attraction at first sight. The more you spend time with someone, the more you get to know him/her. This could make the love grow (or kill it)... it all depends!!Thanks for sharing.

It's very nice knowing about this kind of stories. It give's hope to people who wants to take a chance. I have learnt that is better to have lower expectations when you start any relationship. Another think I have learnt?: Sometimes loving TOO much could hurt the marriage (and the individual) instead of helping. Thanks for sharing.
