What do you think changes your life? Is it a marriage, a death, or a child?

I believe that getting married doesn't really change our life and daily habits, particularly if a couple is already cohabiting since a few years. Instead, I think it's the departure of a beloved person or the birth of a new life that changes everything. I'm sure that the next evolution in my lifestyle will happen once my companion will be pregnant. Hope it'll be soon!

every thing will change our life though the best part of life that will really change for the women is to be a mother, imagine a baby coming from our body, we can feel the moves inside the pain when we give birth and the time that we need to give in order for them to grow up fine and a good person. its not easy to be a mother, might be easy for the father as they only provide money thats why how dare them to just leave those woman whom they got pregnant without thinking any consideration.

Yes, becoming a mother is a HUGE change to a woman's life. She has a brand new role as a mother and she will always keep this title, no matter how old her children are.

I think the most changing events in our life are the transitions, from being a teenager to an adult, from being a student to having a career and so on. People come and go, lovers do too. Once we know who you're meant to be with, that transition from being a single and trying to accept someone in your life, and the fact that living with them under the same roof is also one of those important events that change our life. Embrace it, and be happy with it.

I think it’s the birth of a child which changes a woman’s life the most. Once a baby is born, a mother puts everything behind her for her baby… a mother can endure the most inhuman conditions only for her child…its her child’s needs that’s of most importance to her than anything else.

Yes, I agree a marriage doesn't change much, it just adds a new title to a relationship that has already probably been going for years. But you are right, the birth of a child makes a HUGE difference to your life. I have 4 children and really struggle sometimes to remember what life was life before they came along. Suddenly everything you do, you think of your children. A trip to the shops is harder to arrange, a holiday is more expensive, you have to always think of the child first - but of course, it is all worth it!

not quite agree Getiing married change our life maybe we do not so realize it. Even though you cohabited before marriage, you get to know each other well, I still find to quite diffenent to move into such a serious relationship all life long. Marriage means a lot to me like taking more responsibilities and being prepared to baby birth, children's education... Anyway, our life is chaning almost every day...Some changes may be happy and some are very sad. All we have to do is to accept these changes, adapt them , and learn from them. Enjoy everday change and good luck!

So far I think my relationship with my boyfriend had changed my life, I am no more the old one but a new one with many good qualities one though I don't like them, when someone enters your life and find a place in your heart then it becomes impossible to remain the same as we feel attached to the person.

knowledge,only knowledge can change your life.If you wanted a marriage so you marry someone;if you wanted a baby and you had a baby born.If you didn't want to change,marriage and baby weren't necessary,you did nothing.A departure of a beloved person is absolute sadness and it changed you for a temporary period because life will continue.
