Relationship Rules That Don't Work Anymore: And Still Seem Crazy
Wild is putting it mildly. We won't tell you what our grandmothers or parents think about modern relationships among young people.
Some were counting dates, others were looking for romance, and they all agree: the main thing is the moral qualities of the individual.
But over time, views change, including on romance. Whether this is good or bad - let someone else decide, and we will tell you about the rules in relationships that are disappearing into oblivion (or have already disappeared).
1. Preparing for a meeting doesn't take so much time anymore. It used to be possible to meet someone at the theater, at a disco, or in a park.
Now many people find their betrothed without leaving the couch.
2. Previously, relationships were not built at all before the wedding. People started getting to know each other better after returning from the registry office.
Modern young people get to know each other better after living together for a while, which enables them to make the right decisions in a timely manner.
3. Previously, ladies believed that it was not right to call a man first, as well as to invite him on a date or to his home.
But in the modern world, a woman simply needs to make the first step at least sometimes.
4. Children. In the old days, newlyweds were given a year, and then they started pestering them with questions or hints about when grandchildren would appear. Or they immediately started suspecting something.
Modern society prefers to arrange their daily life and then think about children.
5. Matchmaking as a tradition continues to live, but parents no longer look for a suitable match for their children. This seemed wild even in the last century.
Now fate is entrusted to chance or the Internet.
6. "Divorced" was something like a stigma or a curse word. After a divorce, a woman found herself more vulnerable, less settled, often lonely.
Now, through divorce, women even manage to improve their lives materially, and their personal lives do not suffer much.
Previously, we talked about how to turn online dating into reality.
