A lot of things in this world are driven by sosietal pressures - we can say that. to be more precise peer pressure.
the peer pressure has led to a lot of things , say your studies, you doing certain things in life. in my case my MBA is a bit due to peer pressure also. I have seen a lot fo my friends doign a lot fo things buying a lot of things esp electronics due to peer pressure. But somewhere down the line peer pressure influences some adverse effects.
Peer pressure is heavily reponsible for a lot fo nonsense done by people. Smoking is no 1, followed by drinking with drugs worse to follow. But off late there is a new trend because of peer pressure - Dating. Having a partner - girl friend or boy friend ( i still dont know whether dating equates to haing a BF or a GF. i am serious). Its like a fashion statement or a hep statement to say that i have a partner.
Recently a friend of mine came and told me that she was going around with the guy V and she was serious abt it. I was like - Excuse me? what nonsense. she was apparently telling us ( our group of friends) a while back that she was in a relationship with soem one but unfortunately broke off. fine it happens and we helped her. But then again a relationship within one month and serious , i was lke did you think abt it twice? but the best part of the story was the guy V, who again happens to be our class mate and the roomie of my gang . We very well knew about his relatioships and he was well settled with a partner in mumbai and he was telling abt his girl friend just a week back and how his parents like her. And suddenly this female comes and says that V has broken off with his old GF a coupel fo days back and came and proposed me . I found him to be good and accepted it.
Now give me a break ... was in a relationship til 2 days ago and then broke off and stated another one. What the hell is going around ???? have relationships become a commodity that can be traded in an open market. Once you lose a portfolio or lose interest in it, sell off and acquire another protfolio ? guys give due respect to the word relationship. I just asked the lady , is all these being done for the fashion of having a BF and you get your due respects in your party circles.
and now adding more spice to it , the girl tell us that, she spoke to teh guy's mom who happened to be very cool abt it. now this is really going over the top. people are playing around with relationships and parents are approving it instead of controlling it. Where are we headed to in india??? in the name of westernisation some creatures have destroyed the sanctity of relationships.
reading it you are confused rite whats happening. Not understanding it rite. somehting that is confusing and uncorrigable is relationship.

Hmm..I think its a good think parents are cool about all this.In fact I feel they should absolutely not "control" it. Give guidance and opinion- yes but not control. All said and done each person has the right to make their life as screwed up as they want and correct it later if they want. Parents in India should let their children make their mistakes and hold them accountable for what they do instead of cleaning up their mess. That that person...do their their mistake and clean up their their mess.:P
