There are so many assumption people are keep in his\her mind that living relationship is wrong or write but according to me every thing's has some write or wrong points.
So wrong point to words live in relation ship that. You unable to create a social relation's, back ground (family) support and some time some or more economy problems are to be comes.
Which all problem's not yet come on arrange marriage. If you have strong economy position then you can but not for longer time because your mentality agree that men and women can free after some time if they don't like to each other. If you are in live in relation ship suppose you(women) got pregnant then after breaking the child future are insecure. So you can better decide your better future.

According to me, I don't think so live-in relationship is better than marriage because in living in a relationship are parents will never agree to that and without informing them we will leave another person so it will not be good for us and our parents also and his parents will not accept us in that situation like if I live in with him before marriage in a relationship so yeah it will not good so according to me I think so that it will be better if we will share with our parents if they will agree then we have to get married directly so after live in a relationship not accepting these types of things it is bad for other people and relatives it is to insulting your parents will also feel insult people will backbite about the couple and parents.

What culture? I hate the fact that KAMASUTRA originated from India but when we talk about sexuality, we start talking about 'holy' culture. KAMASUTRA was our culture.
Now, my opinion is - let it be to your choice. If I like it or I met with a situation where I had to live-in, don't judge me. I agree with Riya. I am a modern man. I will have girl friends before marriage. Sex is there in a relationship. The only difference in live-in is we are staying together. Having said that, people in live-in should be really have a strong opinion on what they want, because there might be emotional attachments and heart breaks later on. But even long term awesome relationships might develop even from live-ins. So "live and let live" is my agenda.

See the real fact is that human's are social animal and they need someone to love and pamper them. Many people say love happens only once, but I completely disagree to this point, it is never so. There is no point in telling that it is not our culture basically how long can you keep your culture this closed way? Things are changing in rapid space.
No one have time for each other every one is busy in their own life. So why interfere in peoples life when they want in that way. And if this is the way a boy and girl want to keep their relation then they would be allowed. In other case also they would have all kind of relations. So why just in front of others they should not go in a live in thinking of their image in society.

Well according to me marriage is better in any ways because in case of live in relationship we give our partner a chance to avoid responsibilities, we cant blame our partner if he or she leaves us as they can neglect their partner legally, but the bond of marriage is so strong that one bound to fall in love with his spouse even in the case of arrange marriage, because marriage is such a great thing when a couple starts to live together they must love each other, we hear "happily married", do you hear "happily lived in an open relationship" ever?not for our country atleast, girls of other countries are strong enough to face reality or to overcome when her partner cheats her but we can't move on so easily.

well, i think live in relationship is being liked by those people who are very much of western minded, want to stay away from responsibility and go for only joy. marriage is a commitment to remain with each other in every state of life and for that both of them have to sacrifice and their sacrifice results in a happy married life. unfortunately we are very fond showing ourselves modern but can anyone of us kiss his girlfriend or boyfriend before our parents??? no... because we are basically Indians, we know our traditions. no one is perfect and one cannot get a person as per his/her liking, one has to adjust. one who does not adjust, cannot be successful in any walk of life, leave alone the marriage.

Hello Friends! I read many comments over here, some of you agree with 'live-in relationship is better than Marriage'. I really respect your thoughts. But I want to ask you - Is Living-In Relationship lives long? Is there any assurance? Is there any trust?Is there any commitment? I think we should respect our culture. Marriage increases the tolerance power of two. It not just increases the understanding between the two persons but between the two families too. If there comes any problem in marriage, atleast there are many people like their parents. Who really overcomes the problem.
So I strongly feel Marriages are more respectful. Its shame to compare between marriage and Live in relationship.

No. I dont agree with the concept of live in relationship. Though you may sound me conservative butve indian are born and bought in the culture where we give more importance to our custom, culture and relation. we have seen or heard from our parent and grandparents that they use to marry even though that had not seen each other also but still the marriage was successful. Any relationship needs trust and understanding and people go for live in relationship thinking that they will be able to undertand each other but in livin you dont have any security and it means a lot in any relationship . live in relationship inderectly means no commitment , not ready to take any responsibilites.

In this fast n farward world we want everything quick and good. so dat marriage. keeping in view indian govt also permit live lin relation in some states like maharastra.now talk about what is live in relation. it is like living with anyone without any serious commitment and marraige is living with a serious commitment. it depends on us we belong to which cultre. what we like, what we think perfect for ur that is my culture. so if I find live in relation is better then marraige, in our generation then definately i will go for live. its all depends person to person.u r wise ,so if u find live in is god for u then nothing is wrong there to go for an live in relation.

friends according to my point of view live -in relationships are more better as compared to that of marriages because in live-in relationship we get proper time to understand a person .and after spending proper time with a person you can know that this person can adjust with you or not .He or she is capable to understand you or not and many more things like that .But in case of marriages you do not have that option whether a person supports you or not love you or not you have to be with that person because you have made a comitment and a lawful relation. And rest depends or varies on a person thinking that what type of person they actually need.
