Marriage, refers to the social institution under which a man and woman establish their decision to live as husband and wife by legal commitments, religious ceremonies. However many of us in this modern day do not stand by it. The number of people divorcee are on the rise. To me, my spouse should be 1. caring 2.understanding 3. loyal 4. supportive 5.respect. This may seems like there is a lot of criteria, however to me all these are the most important one should have. Why? Firstly, as a guy, he should be able to care for both our children and me. I have once heard that God punish women by letting her give birth and the guy by providing for the family. If he is unable to provide, then why would i in the first place want to start a family with him? Secondly, he must be able to understand me well. He should be able to understand why i do things in a certain way and not blame me for doing so. lastly, he should be loyal to me and supportive in what ever i do. For example, my aunt. My uncle was diagnosed with cancer earlier this march, although this news devastated both of them, my aunt refused to give up on him. Instead she stood by him and give him both mental and physical support. She did not leave my uncle just because he only has another 6-9 more months to live, but continue loving him. Even though they have been married for more than 30 years they still continue to respect each other. My aunt respect any decisions given by my uncle, his will and his decision to accept any form of medication. To me this is true love.

Other aspects like race religion to me is second issue. In the matter of fact i don't mind having a Malay or Indian boyfriend. My cousin who is a Chinese actually got married to a Malay! I would really hope to follow him in his footstep. If everyone would to try to be more understanding towards other race and religion, i am sure that this world would be a much better place to live in. However i would find it hard to accept if he is younger than me. I prefer older guys, i don't mind a guy who is 10 years my senior.

Of course i see myself as a open minded person. I believe that should be able to support my husband in whatever he do if his choice. In short i feel that as long as he is able to provide me with what i want in him, i would gladly change to suit him.
