Marriage forms a stage where you always have to act mature, even if your heart shouts 'no you are not'..my husband drives me crazy when he insists on not saying sorry for hurting. Its always me who keeps on breaking the ice.. Seems men are always keeping their ego on top of any relation. Why is it so? Don't you think it should a two-way process of understanding each other and giving space. How many of you agree to this?

I agree with you that it is a stage of maturity to be involved in a marriage and make it work. There are times that you will fight and that is okay,but you both must be mature enough to accept when it is your fault and apologize for being stubborn or stupid. I don't think that men think like women do and don't understand how hurt we are as they don't see anything wrong with what they have done.

Marriage is supposed to tie a man and a woman together and strengthen their relationship. Today the world is seeing a new era where marriage is no longer considered necessary or even significant for a relationship. But I think it does matter, because marriage typically provides important and substantial benefits, to individuals as well as society. Marriage improves the health and longevity of men and women; gives them access to a more active and satisfying married life; increases wealth and assets; boosts children's chances for success; and enhances men's performance at work and their earnings.
