Hi, I sometimes feel lonely because I am not in any matrimony or wedlock.
I'm also not married. It can be hard to find the right person to make such a commitment.
I agree, but in some cultures, marriage is recommended and unmarried folks are frowned upon!
Oh my. Can you tell me anything else about marriage in other cultures?
Well, across cultures marriage may be influenced by socially determined rules, prescriptive marriage rules, parental choice and other factors!
I wonder about the history of marriage and when it became such an important part of life.
Marriage has always been a part of human life, it has been practiced as a cultural tradition for centuries.
Interesting. It does seem like fewer people are getting married these days and living alternative lifestyles not bound by tradition.
I agree, even though marriage is considered a cultural universal. people are now starting to adopt independent lives!
