Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

Live-in-relationship denotes an arrangement in which a Man and Woman lives together like husband and wife or cohabits with each other without any legal sanction called 'Marriage'. This concept has not gained social acceptance and considered to be against the Indian culture and moral values. Today couples lives with each other without marrying, the reasons may vary people are becoming more and more individualistic as well hedonistic and career oriented. Today the jobs also demands more time in offices which results in spending less times at home and affecting nurturing of the family. Couple may want to test their compatibility before they marry or may want to maintain their single status. The craze for westernisation, changing lifestyles and defying our own culture is the ongoing trends in the culture of live-in relationship.
