Commitment Phobia - Getting Viral in India

Updated: 10th September, 2015

Commitment phobia in India has been a result of heavy social and cultural shifts in the minds of many young Indians living today. The boom in internet and increase in earning-power have played a crucial role in the mindsets of many young singles, both male and female. The primary one being that one has so much more freedom that making a decision has become harder and harder and the feeling is that the grass maybe green on the other side. Read more about it from the interesting article in TimesOfIndia and our article below.

Running away from commitment in a relationship is common in the USA and other western countries. Marry at late 30’s to ensure you know personally before tying the knot or at least test many before you meet the right person and make up your mind.

On the flip side India has been known for their strong social values, grand wedding and rituals. This has also been celebrated by many Hollywood celebrities to ensure they get the luck in the divorce capital of the USA.

However, this trend is changing in India young generation especially men from metros like Mumbai, Delhi, Pune and from India silicon valley Bangalore (many other top cities) don’t want to take this responsibility in the early age - and especially not arranged by their parents.

Relationship, wedding ceremonies and romance have been the hallmark of Indian movies for the past 100 years. But, this is also taking a new turn, the latest release “Shuddh Desi Romance” (Pure Indian Romance) movie cleanly narrates new GEN Y love in India as how the trend has changed in the past 10 years from commitment focused generation to pro live-in relationship supporting India.

This has been a debate from time know as why this generation Y is running away from commitment and many social activists are putting their head in research and surveys.

Here are theories floating around for Commitment phobia in India Gen Y

1. More exposed and exchange of western culture as India being the market for many
companies and India is one of the cheapest manpower providers of many American
IT and ITES companies. This brings exposure from other parts of the world and their social structure.

2. Indian GEN Y is more independent and self dependent than some of the previous generations. Financial independence has changed how young India make daily decisions.

3. Critics are also saying that it is just in their mind as what they see outside India do not exist in India as they have a strong social bearing and no need for GEN Y to become afraid of commitment.

No matter what people are saying, the fact is that it is getting more and more evident and even the Apex court of law has also legalized the live-in relationship in India.

    God and Jesus. The best is available we shloud all use them. And a date? we shloud seek a spouse or potential spouse. God knows us inside and out and even the very number of hairs on our heads. So why do not more go to God/Jesus with things like this and more?Ask not, get not. Many never ask God for anything so they get nothing for not asking. Asking makes it our will to have God do it for us, if we do not ask we are choosing to do it our way or ourselves.So take this and all things to God/Jesus and let them get it for you, or get the things of the world like the ones of the world. Do as the world, reap as the world. So use Jesus he is ours now.bless you.

  1. David says:

    Young men do not want commitment? Who knew?

  2. KIM says:

    I AGREE WITH SOME BUT NOT WITH ALL

  3. Carilou says:

    I never looked at it that way. I can see why that would scare men now that I think of it. I am just naturally a supportive, caring person and I always wanted to know what was going on with my significant other, not to be nosy but because I cared. Very interesting to me

  4. Lais says:

    Who knows if all the young men don’t want commitment???

  1. David says:

    On the other hand, there is probably a reason why she has only been a friend from the beginning.

  2. KIM says:

    very interesting

  1. dcole050401 says:

  1. David says:

    The one that kills me is the female teacher prosecuted for having sex with ADULT students. What a total miscarriage of justice!

  2. David says:

    Kids these days are starting way too early.

  3. renee says:

    kids start way earlier now days in the world most played game and I am sure some of them wish they hadn’t because they are not mature enough to handle it and the consquences

  4. Christian says:

    I feel that kids pick up adult habits…. with a more sacred adult sexual world. kids would have no choice but to follow.

  5. Jenny says:

    The kids do what they see on TV’s most times and don’t take as a bad habits

  6. Richstone94 says:

    I think plain old curiosity has a lot to do with it in many cases.

  1. David says:

    Your attraction wears off in a week? Wow!

  2. vpablue93 says:

    I would probably try not to be emotional but sincere.

  3. Wallace_xU8z says:

    Love is based on a well-rounded knowledge of a person’s strengths and weaknesses. It’s hardly surprising, then, that love is much more than a feeling. Love is, among other things, “long-suffering and kind. . . . It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.” And love makes a person act in these ways based on knowledge—not on credulity or ignorance.

  4. Willamtel33 says:

    As I see it from a perspective over time of 30 yrsi or more. It seems to be a function of age.
    When I was younger 20_ 30s all decisions were primarily a result of emotional feelings thus heart felt actions.
    Now days it doesnt mater how cute she is ,it comes down to the logistics of living and surviving the
    Multitute of daily problems.
    Thus a woman for me has to be very down to Earth in her thinking,this high maintenance crap should
    Be in the past by now.

  5. enoughcry says:

    One have to consider everything before taking decision…it should be varied and must be flexible enough to cover emotional satisfaction and intelligent needs as well
    Decision both taken is never wrong nor right…Remember it takes two to tango..

  6. stephens says:

    i go for intelligent

  7. wrightcole says:

    A pure definition of love is “insuring you life under someone care, not because they can’t hurt you but believing you are save in his/her hands” its only normal that one should have knowledge of his/her spouse but every relationship will succeed more when it is handled emotionally.

  1. David says:

    A teenager younger than 18 will not wait to join a dating site. They will just lie about their age. LOL

  2. ZachC says:

    I agree David, they wont wait they will lie about their age join up anyway

  2. Jumpdates says:

    It’s not bad but, removing the search results of those sites that are operated all over the world is minimizing the opportunity for singles.

    What you posted made a great deal of sense. However, what about this? suppose you added a little content? I am not suggesting your content is not solid., but suppose you added a headline to possibly get people’s attention? I mean BLOG_TITLE is a little plain. You ought to glance at Yahoo’s front page and see how they create news headlines to get people interested. You might try adding a video or a picture or two to get people interested about everything’ve written. In my opinion, it would bring your posts a little livelier.|

    Some good advise in general, the part about “unwinding alone” making one into an alcoholic was a little odd as this would only be true if alcohol was the only way a person could “unwind”, the walking, mindfullness, exercising etc, all could be done without someone at first until that someone is finally found.
