If you\u2019re a reasonably intelligent, mildly attractive, and acceptably pleasant single woman in your <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/love-and-sex\/my-tinder-bio-not-here-to-mother-20-somethings\/\"><span>early 30s<\/span><\/a><span>, there will come a day that curdles the concept of marriage for you, perhaps irrevocably. It could happen the day you\u2019re sitting opposite a man your married cousin claimed was an \u201cabsolute catch\u201d and realise that the only reason he earned that gushing recommendation was because he was once seen entering the kitchen at a dinner party carrying back empty dishes. Or it could be the day you overhear a much-married colleague \u2013 closer to your parents\u2019 age than your own \u2013 making an icky joke about wanting to \u201cdo\u201d a younger woman colleague. It could be the day you\u2019ve had enough of the passive-aggressive wife jokes that invariably paints the woman of the house as a shrill, unreasonable, nagging shrew; or the day your best friend admits that even though there\u2019s nothing wrong with him or the marriage, they\u2019re only ever happy roughly six per cent of the time.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The point is, somewhere in your 30s, you find yourself seriously wondering why, when so many inmates of the institution are so desperately miserable, the institution of marriage continues to be the gold standard for <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/love-and-sex\/grieve-end-of-a-relationship-no-name-on-paper\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">romantic relationships.<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s an excellent time to be asking yourself this. You\u2019re (hopefully) financially independent and don\u2019t need a man or his money to put a roof over your head or food on your table. You\u2019re grown up enough to enjoy your own company and you have enough meaningful relationships in your life for the idea of quiet evenings alone to feel like a welcome prospect, not a punishment. Science itself is making a compelling argument for women to stay single, with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vice.com\/en_in\/article\/9kpz98\/why-new-research-says-its-ok-to-stay-single-and-die-alone\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">research<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> suggesting that unmarried and childfree women live longer and report being more happy than their married counterparts, and that divorce improves the health of postmenopausal women. You watch your married women friends juggle careers, households and children practically single-handedly, while their husbands lose themselves in their fancy-ass startups, chasing unicorns, and later in <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/doodle\/kapil-sharma-sunil-grover-sidhu-comedy-nights-with-kapil\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kapil Sharma\u2019s<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> sophisticated humour. All of it obviously makes you wonder what the fuss is all about. I\u2019ll bet good money you have, at least once, thought to yourself that you\u2019re better off with a dog, really.\u00a0<\/span>\n<blockquote class=\"quote--center\"><p> You\u2019re (hopefully) financially independent and don\u2019t need a man or his money to put a roof over your head or food on your table.<\/p><\/blockquote> \n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I was hovering very close to writing off the institution for good \u2013 being in long-ish relationships was tough enough without entering an arrangement that makes leaving financially ruinous and painfully tedious. I know <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/humour\/virushka-virat-anushka-power-couple\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">couples<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> who have stayed married because they simply didn\u2019t have the time or energy to deal with the mountain of paperwork that divorce entailed. But every time I think the institution is not for me, I see my parents, and the weirdly hypnotic co-dependence that I would have undoubtedly sneered at a decade ago, but have come to appreciate in the last few years.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you grow up in a two-parent household, you have an inside view of the jerky, primitive dance that is marriage. You watch your parents pretend not to notice the monotony of hearing the same five not-even-that-funny jokes and regurgitated thoughts repeated at every party; and do awkward things to deny the contempt one can\u2019t help but feel for one another\u2019s inadequacies, sounds and smells \u2013 thrown in a sharper focus and becoming increasingly insufferable as the years wear on \u2013 and the general sense of unenthusiastic complacency that comes with growing old next to a person.<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But in the last couple of years, I\u2019ve seen a facet to the infuriating, irrational togetherness that is marriage that escaped me while I was revelling in the invincibility of my youth. In the last couple of years, I\u2019ve watched \u2013 on more than one occasion \u2013 my father fight for his life, and my mother marching right alongside him in that battle, unwilling to concede defeat and never allowing him to, either. If <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/love-and-sex\/secret-sex-life-father-dad-parents-extramarital-affair\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">my father<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is alive today, it\u2019s as much because of my mother\u2019s refusal to let him go as it is because of the miracles of modern medicine. When you spend months upon months in hospitals, you realise how oddly reassuring it is to have someone to call your own when the body breaks down and life starts to dwindle.\u00a0<\/span>\n<blockquote class=\"quote--center\"><p>The more I observe married couples \u2013 both the mostly happy and the wretchedly miserable ones \u2013 I am convinced that to be married is to be a parent; just that marriage itself is the baby.<\/p><\/blockquote> \n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You certainly don\u2019t get married to secure yourself an unpaid caretaker in the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/trending\/the-twilight-zone\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">twilight<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> years, but there is a soul-searing warmth to knowing that as irritating and cranky as each one of us has the potential for being, there exists at least one person in the universe who, by a weird stroke of luck, adores you enough to commit to tolerating your particular brand of obnoxiousness, hopefully until the end. Someone who will remember to make you an omelette because you\u2019re diabetic and the blood sugar mustn\u2019t be allowed to dip too much, even when they\u2019d rather just clobber you with a skillet. Someone who stays, even when you know you\u2019ve given them a million and one reasons to walk and take their love with them.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The more I observe married couples \u2013 both the mostly happy and the wretchedly miserable ones \u2013 I am convinced that to be married is to be a parent; just that marriage itself is the baby. Like a wailing, annoying, filled with chaotic energy toddler that must be fed every few hours just to keep it alive, marriage requires regular feeding of emotional sustenance. My parents have been married for almost 40 years now, and come rain or sunshine, at exactly 3 pm in the afternoon, my father will call my mother and they\u2019ll gossip and complain about their children for exactly three minutes before going about their individual day. It still makes my mum hum and smile to herself. That\u2019s doing something 14,600 times \u2013 give or take a few hundred \u2013 and still finding beauty and joy in it. It\u2019s not just this one thing. One of the most frustrating things about my mum is her absolute inability to handle even the most basic forms of technology. Without my father, her phone would never be charged, and she still wouldn\u2019t know how to send an email. In the three weeks \u2013 yes three weeks! \u2013 it took her to learn how to navigate the mouse pointer on the computer, there was a lot of frustrated banging of tables and raised voices, but he never let her concede defeat.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without my mother, it is likely that my father would show up at family dos wearing bermuda shorts and worn out T-shirts \u2013 seriously, the man seems to be on a mission to own the world\u2019s largest collection of the offending, hideous garment \u2013 but it is a testament to her <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/humour\/no-effort-new-years-resolutions-for-commitment-phobe-millennials\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">commitment <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">that despite threatening to burn them all some day, she\u2019ll still go and enthusiastically help him pick the next one out, on their next shopping trip. Maybe that\u2019s what marriage is: the ability to put your patience to test every day, and coming out on the other side, mostly intact.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every argument <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">against<\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arre.co.in\/modern-family\/marriage-problems-overcaring-husband\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> marriage <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is rock-solid. We\u2019d all probably live a whole lot longer and more peacefully if we didn\u2019t have someone breathing down our backs, feeling entitled to our time, attention, and energy. But perhaps the utter impracticality of the idea that we\u2019re meant to spend our whole lives with one person is what makes it appealing. I now think of marriage as a great, big, creative undertaking. Its adventure lies not in its beginning (although I certainly wouldn\u2019t be averse to being gifted wonderfully useless baubles by way of wedding presents), but in its ability to look at all of each other\u2019s ugly in the eye without turning away. And in having enough love left over to stay, in the bleakest of moments, despite knowing that everything that is bad has the potential to get exponentially worse.\u00a0<\/span>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every time I think marriage is not for me, I see my parents, and the weirdly hypnotic co-dependence that I would have sneered at a decade ago, but have come to appreciate in the last few years.
