The belief that dating inevitably leads to marriage is a pervasive mindset in Indian society. This rule often places unnecessary pressure on individuals, transforming what should be an exploratory and enjoyable experience into a high-stakes endeavor. Modern relationships should allow for the exploration of compatibility without the looming expectation of marriage. By reframing dating as an opportunity for personal growth and understanding, individuals can engage in relationships that prioritize emotional connection over societal expectations. Embracing this perspective can lead to more fulfilling partnerships where the focus is on genuine compatibility rather than conforming to traditional life milestones.
