Dating in India vs Abroad – He Met Her. He Liked Her. He Asked Her Out.

But like a tragic twist in all Bollywood movies, she brought her parents along to talk about ‘Rishta’. This is what dating in India actually constituted till the late 90’s. But the 21^st century brought a fresh wave of change.

Though the parents have not changed yet and most of them remain rigid, the younger generation has become more flexible and accepting.

Dating in India vs Abroad –

• With fabulous apps like Tinder and iCrushiFlush in the picture, dating someone without the qualms of being suspected as a freak and a creep has become easier.

• The perfect soulmate is the dream of every single person irrespective of the origin, so why should the Indians suffer the brunt of Arranged marriages?

• Comparatively the dating scenario in Countries like USA is lithe and manageable. The American parents accept the social needs of their teenagers and are open to their friends and boyfriends or girlfriends visiting or hanging out with them. This probably makes it easier for the kids to share and talk about their relationships and life openly which in turn makes the parent – child bond stronger.

• In India, the parents tend to glue to their kids controlling most of their lives and taking decisions for them. The parents also keep a shrewd eye on who their kids are mingling with. (Neetu Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor)

• Blind dates and dates with random strangers are a huge No-No in India. It looked like a beautiful fairytale for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry but considering the crime rate in India is that advisable? And with Date Rape drugs such as rohypnol doing the rounds, who would trust some unfamiliar face.

• In India the society fixates one thing in the mind of growing kids, Marriage is a Must. Many of the youngsters even today believe that marriage is a sacred bond. No wonder the matrimonial sites have higher registrations than the dating applications. Shaadi.com has around 10 million web traffic as compared to meager 3 million of Tinder.

• The 4 neighborhood aunties who are the Sherlock Holmes fans follow us everywhere. Their eyes scrutinize every single move of ours. Morals and ethics are the core values of Indian society, though they might not exactly follow the codes but the people are always ready to point fingers at others, criticizing every stir. Dating is deemed unethical and thus ruled out of the character log book.

• Curbing the teenagers socially turns them into a devil waiting to rebel. Most of the dating sites have desperate people ready to pounce at every single opportunity they get. Unlike the citizens of countries like USA who try to find love on such online sites, Indian dating sites are full of creeps.

• Valentine’s Day is a myth and chocolates, teddy bears, roses are lethal. The Rigid Indians show no mercy on poor love struck people. This eliminates the chances and places of dating. The fear of getting judged heaves upon the heads of youngsters.

• There are innumerous regulations for dating in India. And yet people find true loves on social media sites like Facebook, Instagram and even LinkedIn. The dating horizon is expanding and becoming more acceptable with time. It wouldn’t be soon that the Indian dating scenario matches the ones Abroad.

Dating in India vs Abroad – Dating in India is still a sham to many, but as the generation becomes more laidback and tolerable the stigma attached with dating is soon going to be whipped off. Though it would take time, maybe a lot, for the parents to adjust to their kids choosing their mates.

Perfect Matches – The Solar and Lunar positions determine and develop the person according to some significant and predestined traits.

Everything that happens to a person during their lifetime happens for a reason, and so does love. Unrequited love and Happily Ever After both circumstances are believed to be the results of these stellar constellations.

The Horoscopes or the Nakshatrams have always been deeply believed in by the Indians.

But in the new era the youngsters recklessly ignore such minute details.

So do the horoscopes really affect the love life? Perfect Matches?

Perfect Matches –

1 – The Astral positions establish the behavioral patterns of the individuals. The Scorpios are believed to be highly dominant and fiery in nature and to balance this out; this sign would need a partner of the fairly submissive and timid sign like Cancer.

2 – The Twelve Signs are divided into four groups: Air, Water, Land and Fire. According to the famous astrologer Linda Goodman, author of the novel Love Signs, the mixing of the Liberal Air sign with the Clingy Water sign is lethal and damaging for both the members.

3 – The Marriage Counselors and Experts believe that horoscope compatibility is important and necessary when it comes to a decision of an everlasting marriage.

4 – The best matches according to the horoscope compatibility are of the Air signs with the Fire Signs and the Water Signs with the Earth Signs as Air helps Fire to grow and attain a mightier form and Water and Earth mingle significantly.

5 – It is often noticed that signs that are too ambitious don’t fit well with signs that are connected to home. Cancer is a sign that feels homesick and needs the other person all the time, so for them to fit in with a Leo is a major difficulty.

6 – The Best match for the sign Aries is Libra, when one is totally grounded, the other is flexible and opposites attract in this case making it a majorly successful match.

7 – Taurus fits perfectly with Cancer as a horoscope match and it is important for them to stay home in the warmth of their love than hanging out in public.

8 – Geminis fall for Sagittarius making it an unconventional match and creating a relationship goal for the other couples. The Sags believe in true love and with Geminis they find it.

9 – The True Love Cancers seek is found in Capricorns and for Leos it is found in the Aquarians. Cancers feel the need to find home and solace, they are exactly opposite to the Capricorns who feel the need to change. This fits them with each other balancing their differences like Yin and Yang. Whereas the Leo falls head over heels for the eccentric Aquarians. Leos love mazes and puzzles; this attracts them to the mysterious Aquarius.

10 – The Sign Virgo falls for water sign Pisces. Virgos are rigid and Pisces is the fluid sign that balances this rigidity. Unceremoniously they fix each other to ultimate perfection.

11 – Best Love matches for Scorpio and Sagittarius are Aquarius and Aries respectively. The Scorpios tend to attract to the Aquarians on the basis of law of attraction. While the Sagittarians are drawn towards Aries because of their need to follow while Aries are the naturally born Leaders.

12 – The Dominant and Rigid Capricorns tend to follow rules and get attracted to Taureans who also have the same belief for the regulations.

13 – The eccentric and mysterious Aquarians match with the dominant Leos as they help them grow into the kind of people they have dreamt. It is a fairytale match.

14 – The last sign of the zodiac Pisces fits perfectly with one of their own clan Cancer. The Cancerians help the Pisceans attain their ultimate goal of spirituality.

Perfect Matches – The Zodiac might not help us in selecting people we love because the choice is ours, but the zodiac certainly has a major role to play in the long lasting matches.

Meghalaya is an attractive and most visited place of the country.

Tourists from all around the world visit India for Cherrapunjee which is stated to be the world’s rain capital. The Amazon basin which receives the highest rainfall gets beaten by this Indian town.

Meghalaya’s crown Shillong is also one of the most visited tourist locations in India. Meghalaya means the abode of clouds in Sanskrit, and it literally signifies its name’s meaning.

Meghalaya is one of the seven northern sisters and it has been of archeological interest since time immemorial. Located between the Khasi Hills, this cozy and beautiful place is India’s hidden paradise. Meghalaya’s most important and attractive feature is the root bridges that are naturally grown bridges from the roots of the trees intermingled.

Mawsynram, the village in Khasi hills is reportedly the highest rainfall receiving village in the world. It is located 15 km west of Cherrapunjee and the citizens are mostly tribals of the Khasi, Garo or Jaintia tribes which have been living in the hills since generations.

High in moisture and humidity the moisture clad clouds and winds reach the village from the Bay of Bengal. The location and features of the place contribute significantly to the wide variety of Flora and Fauna. Ranging from exotic birds to flowers that trap insects, all is available in Meghalaya.

The tales of Meghalaya are ancient and interesting. It is said that a family was traveling when a storm hit them and they got divided, the trees saw their situation and pitied them. For helping them reunite the trees grew out their roots and formed the bridges to help them reach each other. Cherrapunji holds two Guiness world records for receiving the maximum amount of rainfall in a single year.

Meghalaya is well connected with the roads and has a strong transport system, but due to rains the most of the time in a year the roads are blocked. It is often said that when you are at Meghalaya always carry an umbrella.

The Tribals claim Meghalaya to be the state of Gods. There are myths and legends that accompany the scientific fact of Meghalaya being the rain capital of the world. The Leap of La Kilai is a waterfall that is surrounded by another myth which goes like, there was a woman named La Likai who remarried after death of her husband to take care of her child. But the step father killed the child and anguished La Likai became the waterfall which till today carries her moans.

Meghalaya is the capital of rains and myths. The tribals and natives live on agriculture and hunting. Paddy is the most grown crop. The natives also have adapted to the rainy atmosphere. The state is not well connected to the country with one of its side (northern) being connected to Bangladesh and the other to Mizoram.

The State has been the target of naxalism and political conflicts which have died down now as it has started to develop.

Elections 2019 – The campaign for the elections 2019 has already begun, technically it had begun in 2014 as soon as the major party BJP was elected. Promises are being made, Rallies are taking place.

One question that haunts every mind is who would win it this time?

The quest for the Chair of the Prime Minister with its added responsibilities started off earlier this year. Major parties BJP and Congress are the lead in the race, but that doesn’t mean it’s a no chance for the smaller parties. Parties like Samjawadi Party and BSP are also in the race for the leading party.

The false promises and bad conditioned roads have led to the loss of trust in the leading party by the citizens. But at the same time the belief in the opposition is also on an all time low, so this is the best time for the smaller parties to take a chance and plunge right in.

After the Karnataka elections it is easier to see that the position is faltering. As the current Prime Minister NarendraModi tries to go over the top with his tours and convincing the public with the speeches, the opposition campaigns for the golden boy Rahul Gandhi for the position of the next Prime Minister.

Congress has started to look more appealing with its campaigns and all pre tested techniques of pleasing the public. But Modi Sarkar is difficult to be trodden down, with effective and hardworking ministers like SushmaSwaraj, SmritiIrani and Yogi the party is just achieving huge standards.

The equation falls when scams like Mallya, Choksi and Nirav Modi are revealed maligning the current government, pointing out at their inability to stop or punish such wrong doers.

The Campaigns in Bihar and Chhatisgarh are majorly taking a toll on the supporters for BJP. The shrinking numbers state that the party needs to put more efforts. As in the year 2014, the party needs to be highly creative with the political advertising.

The NaMo campaign had earned the current government followers from around the country in all age groups ranging from youngsters to the middle aged and the older generation.

The BJP and Shivsena alliance and other alliances are most needed at this time to create a stronger government. With the farmers in trouble and the dairy prices on a hike the government has a lot of troubles to face inside the borders. The ceasefire and major terrorist attacks daily on the borders is also weakening the faith in the government.

The biggest decision taken by the smaller parties is to pool together to destroy the juggernaut BJP. Mamata Banerjee has commented on the Uttar Pradesh elections saying it a big win. The Akhilesh Yadav party also eyes on a big win for Elections 2019.

The Congress party was never expected to win in the 2004 elections but it did, so if probability has to be taken in consideration, the Party has higher chances of bouncing back now than any time later.
