Ruchi’s question on facebook about what can make a marriage work started me thinking. This is not the first time I have thought about it, and whenever I think that I will get married myself one day it gives me cold feet. The reason for the cold feet is precisely the fear that the marriage might not work. My failed relationships of the past have taught me a lot of things, to think the way I do, to be able to take responsibility for my actions, but they have also made me increasingly pessimistic… will I ever find true love (marriage of mind and body)?Recently one of my friends dated a guy for a few days. They were great together, I mean they had great chemistry. But there was a fuck up as is mandatory for most good things. He is younger to her, naturally, in a country like India it is difficult to visualize a future under such circumstances.
