Some thought that being extra controlling and protective meant their partner loved them. While others thought fighting, screaming and yelling, were normal in relationships. Take a look at some of the weird notions that these women had:

The craving for ‘the one’.

The fear of ‘log kya kahenge’.

“Apney se badey ladkey se shadi karo.”

Not expecting love in return.

WHAT!

Sacrificing yourself.

The cliche.

A partner and a relationship should empower us, make us feel liberated and free from any burden. The ones that give us anxiety and stress are worth staying away from. Haina?
