Indian Matrimonial Website trusts you to give perfect matchmaking services that will be easy and simple way to find your match. For these Matrimony Service providers, it is assumed that they will take care about matching all the associated aspects for Hindu Marriage. Has society changed so fundamentally that marriage no longer fits, or have we simply lost sight of what makes marriage work?

GLOBALIZATION AND MARRIAGE

Today, modernism and globalization have much influence on the overall dimensions of human life including marriage and divorce. Hindu marriage custom may seem outward to those in western society, but they serve a purpose for the Hindus. The fast changes like journey to cities and abroad, freedom of relationship between male and female, decrease in indecent divorce and family instability are outcome of these social transitions. Modernism and globalization have had negative impact on marriage and divorce .

Relationships out of marriage are looked down upon.

But today marriage doesnt hold the same values anymore. People have found new ways to live those, which are more convenient for them. Cohabitation or the concept of a live-in relationship is one such consequence .

No marriage, no pressure, no strings attached. Live for the present with the person you want to be with- thats the mantra.

Society may heap praises on marriage as a SACRED institution, but like everything else in life, it too has its flipside. Look back in time and you realize that in the days gone by, couples got married when they were much younger and their minds still fresh. This made it so much easier to fit into the relationship. But in the current context, this wont work. Marriages crash because couples are too hard pressed for where it is difficult to test their compatibility factor.
