    I knew that arranged marriage was prevalent, but not to the extent that the article explains. A particular concept I found interesting was that unarranged marriages created through love, or “love match” have their own name and unique distinction; a very good friend of mine was born in India and frequently expresses the pride he has from his parents being married by love and not by arrangement. This article encouraged me to open my mind and realize how different cultures can be. For example, instead of just expecting food, dress, and language to vary as culture varies, it is important to remind myself that everyday components of the Western culture I know can be very different elsewhere—and that the differences are…

    Currently, I have been in a long-term relationship with my boyfriend for the last ten years. I know ten years is a long time however, I have become comfortable in this dead end relationship.

On just a day like no other I could not even believe that this had happened. That just a few words could have such a strong meaning, these words felt as if the world had been crashing all at once.

I always had to make a good example and never show that I was scared. When my mom and stepdad had to work, I would take care of them until they came back while getting my schoolwork and practicing my instrument done too. I never really had a chance to be a kid, I always had to be a mother to my siblings. I would always wish for more time in the day for myself, Although watching them grow up from when they were small and started school for the first time made up for that loss time.

    It was the year 2012, when I experienced a life-changing event, which led to my transition from childhood into adulthood. This event was my parent’s divorce. During this time I was scared and hurt, because my parents’ separation not only meant the parting of my parents-but parting from the life I’ve always known as a child. The separation moved at an almost mockingly lackadaisical pace. Months tediously dragged on, and even after the legal separation my life was never as it once was. I started to appreciate the people who were present in my life and how precious family stability is. The idea of losing my mother or father to divorce made me realize that this could have easily been a loss due to an illness. I grew to appreciate that I am lucky to have them in my life period. It was at this time that I seriously thought about working in health care; a field that aims to prolong human lives. This event of my childhood that some might even call traumatic, bettered me, and brought me into the adult world.…

    Years ago, I never really took getting married seriously. For years, I was a bachelor and to be quite honest, I was having the time of my life. There were times when I felt the urge to settle down, but for the most part, I was quite content with life the way it was. There was no one to answer to, no one to be responsible for, and I pretty much came and went as I pleased. In my mind, single life was the best and I did not want to rush these times along. Sure, I knew I would marry eventually but I figured that I had a lot of time to do so. Also, I knew that if I had to marry, there was only one person that I could see myself settling down with and I had no idea if she was available.…

    Every little girl dreams about her wedding day. This is the day when she meets her knight in shining armor and he whisks here away in her stunning white dress with every one looking on in envy of their love and happiness. That is every little girl but me. I despised the thought of marriage. My parents didn’t set the best example in any of their marriages, past and current. It always made me wonder why? Why would you want to marry someone when you knew it would end in divorce? How could you love someone so much but resent them? What was it that made them so unhappy? I grew up never seeing or knowing what a healthy relationship looked like. They only happened in the movies. For years I refused to get married. I even ended a five year relationship because the guy just wanted to marry me. Yes I loved him but I couldn’t bring myself to say yes. Now at the age of 30 some things have changed. I fell in love with Greg.…

    Divorce in my eyes is definitely one of the biggest happening things to everyday life. To make things simple, divorce is basically the dissolution of marriage by law. Marriage is something that everyone will face during his or her upcoming lives, but divorce should not be a case due to a cause of dishonesty, or even a constant fighting mishap. In my opinion divorce should have never even came about in this society today. It should either be a done / done situation or a never happening issue.…
