recently i saw a tv series called bride. i know the indians have the arrangment marriage. the marriage is very important for the indian women. if they don't marry a goos guy, they will live a terrible life. for once they get married they seldom divorce. in this story husband is the real mister at home.the wife is afraid of the husband. does that just happened at the old times? or also now?

The society has become more and more open and free all over the world.I think the yougsters are more open-minded, but the sense of resposibility is still very important.

responsiblities are more on guys than girls.girls should cooperate and to guys and have patience which we dont see in western countries.Thatswhy their family system is like that.

Hi rose What you saw in the tv is upto a certain level true. I am an Indian bride since 30 years and still unable to take any decision of my own. Because here the husband with the help of his parents and siblings dominates the home. whether we like it or not we have to endure and there is no question of divorce. Even in some families,husband beats the wife if she did not obeys him. In some other families, the wife dominates and the husband will be henpecked. Now the culture is slowly changing some people are opting for a divorce and getting it too as they are financially independent and enjoy the support of their parents and sibllings

Hi..rose Majority of the Indian marriages are arranged ones and most of them are happlily living here.What you have seen in the TV seriels may not be true. This is all imagination. what we are seeing here in real life is happy family life.What you have seen in the seriels did nt happened in old times also. One more thing when we compare the divorce rate is very low when compared to other countries. Also love marriage rate is also very low.

dear rose, i have a lot of indian friends who have told me that theirs is an arranged marriage. they have learned to love their wives/husbands as years pass and most men are very responsible. responsibility is the most important aspect in their marriage. infidelity is a mortal sin. hence, i see the sanctity of marriage is preserved. it is happening. i wish every married couple have this kind of devotion to their married life. ann

this used to happen in the old time and now a days wife is dominating not the husband , lol...yeah these things used to happen and may be now a days also happens but it will happen in villages not in big cities or towns , those who live in villages their man is dominating on the women and women is so afraid of her man that she never says anything.well i have also seen the show and trust me i have never seen a boring show ever , it's all for publicity.

if that's true, it's very serious. i know in china man dominate his wife and one man can have more than one wife. but this situation never happens in modern times. if that happens now i think maybe the government can have way to improve the women's social location.
