Time for Marriage
My family and I just came back from Dallas for my cousin’s wedding. We have a pretty large family so it’s always fun to get together for family functions. My brother is “of marriage age” but currently not married and not really in any rush to do so. But, being typical Indians, the question of marriage is the main topic. “So, when are you getting married” is a common question that was asked throughout the weekend. Since we were at a wedding, the best line was “So when are we going to do this for you”! We decided to tally how many times he would get asked that over the weekend… the number turned out the be 15! I know they have the best intentions in mind, but why is that such a prominent topic in our society? Being the younger brother, it was actually entertaining for me to watch! Do ya’ll have any horror stories on this topic to share?


Just wait until you start to get asked “Beta, when are you having the babies?”
