Nowadays, the pattern of women all around the world not getting married is starting to be more common. While some people think that the reason behind this is the women’s ability to earn money independently and not be in need of the financial help husbands usually offer, others believe that women don’t need emotional support from their partner anymore due to availability of psychological help. Taking these beliefs into account, this essay will provide arguments in support of the both reasons for not getting married.
According to some people’s assumptions, women from different countries decide to not get into marriage because one of the main needs for finding a life partner, which is emotional support and stability, is already covered by mental health professionals. Modern society is getting more used to paying for their mental health and well-being, and there are certain reasons for that. Unfortunately, people we rely most on might backstab us in the very unexpected moment, and no one can be emotionally prepared for this. There are numerous real-life examples of different people telling the same story of betrayal from their loved ones, usually their partners. Following this, women cannot rely on and trust an unpredictable person with their mental health anymore. Of course, there are some lovely stories where both partners have full trust in each other, but the chance of winning this lottery is very low. That is why women prefer to pay for psychological help rather than seek for trust where there is none of it.
On the other hand, economic independence plays a significant role in this debate as well. If a decade ago it was very rare to see a woman in a high job position, now it is totally fine to have a female CEO. Women are getting on the same work appreciation level as men, which means their salaries now are the same as the other male coworkers’. So, in this case the salary and money dependence on a partner is not relevant. Females can purchase anything they want without asking their partners or waiting for a special event, they are able to buy gifts to themselves whenever they would like to.
To sum everything up, it is true that women don’t feel the need to get married because they can afford the comfortable life themselves, and mental well-being is not necessary should be trusted to a partner, the mental health professional might be even better in this task.
