Q2. A recurrent expectation among soon-to-be married couples is "Love is all that I want." Discuss.

Ans. Love is a beautiful feeling of desire, want, need and all words suggesting the dire need of connectedness.

This feeling has been discussed and understood by many, philosophers, musicians, artists and even theorists, so

to understand as to what Love is. However, this emotion, just how deeply comprehensible it is, also in its

immature form is misunderstood and confused by many. This is a true story of people these days, especially

those who want to or are soon-to-be married couples.

There is a sort of hurriedness, enthusiastic pleasure-seeking energy in couples who are soon-to-be married,

including those, who also wish to step into this affair of families and two people. The energy they seek is the

same that they exhibit. It could also be understood as lust in some marriages. Relationships tend to go south

when we stop taking actions that our partner would perceive as loving and instead start looking to our partner

solely to meet our own needs. It's important to distinguish emotional hunger from real love.

But, in literal sense what it shows is such, that all in the moment that these couples desire of love, temporary or

permanent, doesn’t matter, because all that does is the desire to be with the other one. Nonetheless, this notion

is objected and denied by many, supporting the standpoint that love is indeed key to a happy married life, not

enough, however to play the game well. That, Love is not enough for a healthy marriage and doesn’t help in

getting to where one wants to go.

Marriage, moreover life, is a test of emotional and life skills. Once entered, couldn’t find any escape. All the

craze of marriage and love and family goes down the sink once life stresses step in, taking a toll on both the

partners, unable to handle, may result in failed marriage or even Divorce. If it were understood by people who

do not go bonkers over marriage, a lot of failed marriages and broken children could have been avoided. The

test of marriage lies in the test of couples who are strong enough, whilst being emotional and sensitively handy,

are practical too to rule out the possibilities either before marriage while looking for a suitable partner or are

strong enough to handle the situations upholding the attitude of ‘come what may’, and go on dealing and

winning through life together, hand in hand. Most of the problems are common among the newly wedded,
including emotional, physical, and mental troubles. To name a few are, no room for trust, honesty, competence

among partners, no space appreciated among many.

There comes a moment in a person’s life, when s/he feels that its right to get married now and settle in life to

share his/her life with the significant other compatible enough. In this moment, there could be two outcomes.

One, either that s/he hurriedly gets married with the mind-set, which is relatively temporary to other than ‘Love

is all that I want’. Or The other is, s/he settles in for no less and rules out the outcomes, good or bad, takes time,

enough to think how with this particular person his/her life would turn out to be. The only difference among

these two consequences is that, in second, there is enough room for acceptance, integrity and less space for

Divorce or broken marriage. Whereas, in the first case, there are elevated chances that Divorce would be the

result anyway, solely because of the craze of getting into a marriage bond, in the first place.

However, this sense of ending quickly into marriage due to reasons what so ever, almost always results in

broken families and marriages and even children if any, who suffer the most. Therefore, this is a need to

understand the requirement of a wedding affair, if at all thinking to marry so as to prevent the loss that would

happen later, and think before acting, as always remains true.
