Marriage is a commitment from both sides so why should only the woman do all the adjusting? Here's what I tell my daughter in law - that she has these rights.

"What to do after 12th boards?" is the dilemma of every child who has given this exam. All you need is the courage of your convictions.

After marriage, she barely called or answered mine. And one day she disappeared from my life. She stopped responding to my letters, calls, and texts. My best friend abandoned me.

She kept trying to fix her ma's depression for the lack of a boy child from a young age. Only to give up 'control' to her boyfriend - the 'man' in her life to emotionally manipulate her in the name of love.

Normalize being unmarried in the 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond. We need to cultivate respect in society irrespective of our relationship status.
