The institution of marriage is in crisis. This is evidenced by the prevalence of free relationships and so-called civil marriages among young people. A certain part of the female population is not going to get married at all until it reaches its goals.
For some categories of women, marriage is the only possible option for the development of relations between a man and a woman, and the creation of a family is the main purpose of existence.
Humanity has taken too long to form the current family relationships to simply abandon them. The family at one time was necessary for existence in society. An unmarried woman was perceived by society as inferior. The single mother carried the status of shame for the rest of her days.
Today, emancipation has reached such proportions that women perform the functions of men in production, sometimes have a wealth above the average male, make rapid career growth and decide for themselves whether to start a family or not, to give birth to a child or not.
Actually, the well-being of children is the main factor in the conclusion of an official marriage. Normal sexual development of a child can only take place in a full-fledged family. A child should see an example of heterosexual relations between parents in order to correctly identify himself and not later have problems in relationships with the opposite sex.
Of course, it is happiness to find your half, live happily with her all your life and die one day surrounded by children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. But if not destiny
To live your life wisely, you need to know a lot.
Remember two important rules to start with:
You better starve than eat anything
And it is better to be alone than with just anyone.
Omar Khayya
And fate may turn out in such a way that in life you will not meet such a person with whom you would like to be near for many years. Do not put an identity sign between the concepts of "relationship" and "marriage". Even the most romantic relationships can collapse under the influence of unresolved and unsolvable everyday problems. While separate coexistence and infrequent meetings can satisfy both participants in the tandem. Even if this form of relationship is not yet typical for Russia, it is practiced in Europe and America and even has the status of marriage relations and is called a guest marriage.
Classical marriage implied the distribution of family responsibilities. The man is the breadwinner, the woman is the keeper of the hearth. Most women are employed today. Moreover, they have to combine work with taking care of the hearth. The functions of men in the household are limited to maintaining sanitary equipment and electrical appliances in working order.
In the absence of love and mutual understanding, such an imbalance degrades a woman's dignity and makes marriage a burden for her. Moreover, the stereotype imposed by public opinion and traditions forces the majority of women to put up with this state of affairs.
Of course, the institution of the family will last for a long time, and the same number of women will marry in search of a strong shoulder. But if you do get married, then on an equal footing with a man, and not in the status of a free housekeeper and nanny. Still, a husband is not just a male person next to him, but a soul mate. Over time, happy spouses become similar in appearance, understand each other perfectly, feel pain and joy of each other. No wonder they say "husband and wife are one body, one work, one spirit."
Only today is the practical necessity of a formal marriage. Many women consider the issue of the expediency of marriage, without looking back at public opinion and traditions. They have the material opportunity and moral right to be guided by their own attitude to the registration of relations.
According to the results of statistics in our country in April 2013, there are 56 unmarried women for every 20 single men.
Therefore, a woman who for some reason did not marry has no reason to despair about this, and even more so, to throw herself into the maelstrom of marriage just for the sake of a stamp in her passport.
