Bhopal, Nov 20: Elders say the work that is done in time gives satisfaction and complacency, but the generations that are living in present age want to adopt different ways, resulting to change in several traditions and that changes increasing rapidly in our society. Though the city might not have changed merely but it seems true about the late marriages.

A sizeable number in our society and their number are increasing rapidly too, who have crossed their 30's, remain unmarried. Career, self-identity and self-reliance are the delaying factors of marriage.

Every dimension come ahead

Psychologist, Dr Vinay Mishra says about the delay in marriage that people have faced the problems of early marriage and they broke the old traditions.

This trend has occurred due to career consciousness. When a youth completes his education and gets job, his life becomes stable. This is a symptom of social awareness. They understand that early marriage is not good with a view to health. Moreover, the expectations of girls and boys have increased which cannot be fulfilled with early marriage.

Joint families are also not in trend where after marriage people can survive without service. These are the factors responsible for delay in marriage.

Marriage counselor, Suvarna Gupta believes that delay in marriage make hurdles at some extent in adjustment but keeping in view the career it has its own importance.

She believes that when maturity increases the possibilities of adaptation decrease. But both girls and boys become capable to understand what is good and bad.

Dr Meenakshi Verma says about the delay in marriage that when one builds his or her career these circumstances become helpful in shouldering responsibilities of married life.

As you become mature up to this age so as a parent your maturity takes shape and you can bring up your children well.

Whereas, chances of normal delivery decrease in girls and several times they bear their off springs very late. The children could not settle till the retirement age of their parents.

But we are happy

At the age when we have married, for some extent, we understand our life well. And we had enjoyed our life. If marriage is performed at the time of a college student or at an early age then it brings disappointments and lack of willpower to face circumstances. A lot of experiences are felt and they pays something.

Before beginning married life first you should be capable to shoulder the responsibilities of a family. If you are not financially sound then you should not think about marriage. We are happy to be married as our understanding of each other is good.

Getting married late gave benefit that we could manage our domestic life well. That made us more understanding and responsible. We knew how to make plans for better life. Though, we think that if we had married earlier then we had built a house at that time. But it is also true that one should get married when he or she is mentally and financially strong.
