7 Reasons Fewer People Choose To Get Married These Days

2. Educating and empowering oneself is a priority- marriage can wait

Gone are the days when girls belonged in the kitchen and boys in their fathers’ business, making education redundant. Pursuing higher education and building careers in esteemed institutions in the country as well as abroad is of prime importance to the youth now. The years invested in higher education automatically push the age of marriage further than ever before.

3. Living in is the way to go

Urban societies, as well as the law, are progressively becoming more accepting of live-in relationships and the youth is all for it. Like a marriage, but easier to get out of if things don’t work out, live-in relationships are the way to go for many young couples.
