How I became the Subject matter of the Study? A few years back when I was perusing my Master’s degree in sociology, our teacher assigned us the different project works. The topic that was assigned to me was “late marriage and its reasons “In this connection, when I interacted with a 42 year’s old unmarried girl from Srinagar city. Yes, 42 years unmarried! She narrated her shocking story as. “When I (She) completed my B.A. degree. As usually, my parents and my close relatives showed their concern about my marriage. My mother’s view about my marriage was different; she advised me to go for one more course B.Ed. so that I could get good marriage partner”. I acted upon her advice. I utilized one and half more years of my life in pursuing the course. “If she will pursue M.Ed., the chances become more to have good life partner. This time, it was my father who gave that extraordinarily piece of advice to me. Giving such suggestion did not stop here I did my M. Phil and Ph.D. During this whole process of research work, my personal life became the subject matter of study for social scientists “Late marriage and its reasons”. Parents never bothered about my choice. I could not understate whether it was their greed or social pressures that forced them to devise such so called innovative ideas to get life partners for their siblings. I am 42 years old now and decided to leave my life as single.
