Love in your teens gives you butterflies in your stomach, makes your heart skip a beat and even makes you fall head over heels for that one person, or maybe more than one person over the years. This changes once you are in your 20s as more people look for a serious relationship. While it works for some, it doesn’t for others. Traditionally, most Indians get married or are expected to tie the knot in their 20s but that may not always be the case, as life and relationships unfold in so many unique ways for different people. 

With friends and extended family getting married during this time, family and neighbours get on the bandwagon asking you when you are next. While it is easier to answer for those who are in relationships and have probably set their eyes on marriage in the near future, the pressure may often get to those who are not only unmarried but also single in their 30s, it changes further when many have to address it in their 40s.
