I just recently turned 18(F)from a very conservative and religious family (Not from Western society) though personally I’m not really religious. I always had fantasies and dreams about marriage about the perfect husband who would love me forever let’s says I was living in my own bubble however reality seems different than that. I was so devastated when I found out cheating was a very common practice and a lot of husbands cheated on their wives and was more shocked when I came to know that even women cheated. I came across a term sugaring or sugar dating, and the amount of married men that secretly dated younger women behind their wives back just further demotivated me and what angered me is that the amount of women that showed no remorse ‘dating’ these married older men just for money and luxurious life I try my very best not to be judgmental and be positive about ppl’s choices but sometimes it’s very hard not to i was raised with certain moral standards and my mother always told me that one of the worst things a woman can do to another woman is sleeping with another woman’s husband for her own selfish desires.

I always use to enjoy talking about marriage with my mom and friends but now I’m just simply disgusted. What’s the use to marry, give up your youth for a man only after a few years he’ll cheat behind your back with other women.

Normally girls in our community start getting suitors around the age of 14-15 and get married at the age of 19-20. And now the pressure is building for me to get married and I don’t know what to do.

What do you guys say?
