A friend of mine is a marriage counselor. The other day we were discussing why number of divorce cases are rising. This person is a humorist and explains the realities of married life in a very subtle manner. He says that many times his clients, who come to him in two separate cars, return in one.He makes them understand the importance of married life in a very practical way. I am quoting below some of his favourite statements and observations.
1. What is marriage ? ( a).Upto three years of marriage their room is so pleasant. It smells of perfumes, flowers, chocolates and beautiful dresses and numberless shoes/ sandals.
( b) After three years it is full of Baby Powder, Baby Cream, Diapers, Toys and nursery books.
(c) After fifteen years. there are separate bedrooms. Items to be seen are pain killers,sprays, hot water bottles and books.
(d) After forty years you find photos of different Gods and aggarbatties.(incense sticks)
2. Four stages of marriage
Soon after marriage Mad for each other
2nd stage Made for each other
3rd stage Mad at each other
4th stage Mad because of each other each other.
3.Definition of a happy couple
HE does what SHE wants
SHE does what SHE wants,
4.A wife tells her husband, "If I had married some devil, instead of you, I would have been very happy"
The husband replies," Don't you know that marriage between blood relations is invalid!"
