Marriage is another stage in a person’s life. As more of my friends and relatives walk down the aisle, some a second time, and some their first, it makes me wonder if any one of us with the awareness that a union will not last, would step in to advert a possible crisis.

I found out recently that a friend of mine was going to marry a girl who brought him many problems at work and on the personal front. Relentless were his daily calls to me to discuss his pains and when he talked about getting serious with her, it became increasingly difficult to be patient with him.

I stopped answering his calls therafter. Thinking back, I may not have been a very good friend by doing so but I couldn’t bear to attend the wedding, with the knowledge of the cracks already present within the relationship.

It’s not that I didn’t try to help them. I did but the difference was, she didn’t want any help.

A lot of us think that a marriage or a kid may be the saving grace to any broken relationship / marriage. Having seen and experienced it myself, there’s no foolproof solution for any relationship.

It always comes full circle I guess.
