# Philosophical Reasons :-

(a) In olden times, marriages in our society were thought to be fixed in heaven. One (especially woman) had to adjust with whatever life partner they got in the arrangement made by their elders. Marriage was thought to be a religious binding, releasing the partners from bondage only after death. But today, the attitude and outlook has changed wherein the marriage is considered to be a contract which if and when unsuitable, may be broken by either of the partners.

(b) The individuals in olden times had very close with the blood relations and even a person of same village or town was considered as ‘one’ this own’. This kinship and attachment of oneness is now rarely to be seen. The individuals are becoming more and more self-centered and the ‘WE’ and ‘OURS’ have been replaced by ‘I’ and ‘MINE’. This has changed the very thinking and behavior of man.
