Why do women change after marriage?

Why do women change so much after marriage? This is a question many guys would like an answer to. Men often complain that when a woman is a girlfriend she would accepts you the way you are including your friend's, your likes, your music, your gadgets etc. But after you get married the same woman tries to change every thing about you. But after few years of marriage she says “You know you are not the same guy I married to". I guess that is because love is blind and that reality was not as attractive as we thought. I remember reading an answer to this question at a forum that females try to change there husbands after marriage because they could not get the man they wanted so they were trying to make changes in the man they got to meet what they wanted. Well, it is sad but true to a greater extent with many women.

Marriage is a life changing event for Women. Girls move out of their parent’s house and move into the household of their husbands. The girl also become more mature, responsible and disciplined once she is married. A woman not only has to adjust with the life in the new household where ever it is but also lose her old identity. Not all Women get to keep their maiden name after marriage. They give up their maiden names and take their husbands' surname upon marriage because that is expected of a woman in our society.

For most women marriage is the end of a lot of things. Some of them are their own likes, friends and seeing their own parents. I have seen several females who transform themselves to fit into their husband’s household. A college friend of mine who was very modern and stylish is now married to a businessman in Surat and she now wears a Saree and even covers her head. I have seen women giving up their jobs because the husband or in-laws did not approve of their sons wife working. Many women give up eating non vegetarian when they are married into a vegetarian household. Apart from that many of us find it difficult to communicate or meet our old friends or our own parents because of our new priorities.

We also see the transformation of a proud Miss Perfect 10 to a careless Mrs. Fat Aunt with in few years of marriage. A few months back I have been to my cousin’s place at Pune and was surprised to see that my sister in law has become so fat I could barely recognize her.  She said that she is so busy with the household chores that she has no time for exercise. She also revealed to me that since she did not want the food to go waste she mostly consumed the leftovers. No doubt she became so fat. Many women like her also tend to think that “I have found a partner for life, now who else I need to attract?” In fact a woman becomes so comfortable with the fact that they do not have to leave your bed early in the morning for an exercise or sacrifice a favorite dessert to cut down calorie intake. Most women also do their best to impress their spouses with the cooking skills with foods that may taste good but make be unhealthy. Because of unhealthy life style most women also find it difficult to shed the weight they put on during pregnancy.

Ladies, you got married does not mean that you do not have to look attractive anymore. In fact, if you want to keep your man from going to another woman and stay glued to you then better take care of your looks and health. What do you say?
