The Indian MGTOW fails to understand why marriage is associated with happiness and misery associated with a single life.Our society creates wrong assumptions about people living alone.
At 37 being single I am very much content with my life.And yes, I am not one of those miserable lonely persons that the society portrays to be. Like all normal people I too have my ups and downs. For me life is a journey which will be traveled solo. I am sure that there are many single Indian men who share a lifestyle similar to mine.
They why does the society feel that we as single Indian men are living a wretched and miserable life? I have no answer. Majority of the married people have a judgmental problem when it comes to single Indian men. They feel that single Indian men are sad, lonely, depressed, living a miserable life which certainly is not true.
Now I come to the married men? Are they really happy? Experience and interactions with different people have taught me that the grass is always greener on the other side. Things are not as rosy as depicted.Marriage is no cakewalk. Beyond those happy social media posts, beyond those happy families seen at different social functions there exists an underbelly of bitter reality that no one gets to see. Married people have their own problems and with time these problems tend to multiply. No one talks on dysfunctional marriages or abusive spouses. No one speaks on the unwanted social obligations and responsibilities put upon a married man. In today's times marriage is like navigating a minefield.
Married or single, your attitude decides your happiness, it is for you to chose. Pragmatic single Indian men have their own choice and are happy with the same. Your are not cursed if you are single and you are not blessed if you are married, as simple as that.
