This sounds to me that fault is with men always. Probably most,but not all the time. Both men and women compromise less and expect more.vivekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12664989094207703735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976244.post-87055917188734242302009-04-04T19:18:00.000-07:002009-04-04T19:18:00.000-07:00I totally agree with Cynic.

But unfortunately not all guys (or their families) realize that. They get attracted by the girl's achievements but still expect her to be the "good wife" who'll do most of the work at home, be sweet all the time, be understanding, obedient etc etc. I guess walking out of that relationship seems better than feeling disrespected everyday. Its easier too as we don't have to think "who will feed me?". And I guess society (at least the urban society) is also relatively less harsh to single, independent women than it used to be.Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17600166917889802165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976244.post-39584350688267478562009-04-02T06:01:00.000-07:002009-04-02T06:01:00.000-07:00Hi,Arunima-this was somewhat disturbing-I read abo...Hi,Arunima-this was somewhat disturbing-I read about so many divorce(e)s after quite some time...but,then,maybe it's the changing times which are at fault?
