To marry someone you love without thinking ahead is emotional, people who have done that mostly regret later. Whether or not you are a vegetarian is not an issue, it is a question of ‘mutual understand and respect’. This is rational.



To find someone from your ‘circle’; whatever region or club etc., does not guarantee a happy marriage, nor does it mean it is the one for you.



To go against principles and hoping someday their partner will accept her/him, the answer is probably NOT. Well, as it is, you just have to suffer the consequence.



On the other hand, we all make mistake, experience makes us grow up. You know it only if you taste it. Marriage is personal (yours), you take it; you deal with it, otherwise let go, be wise.



Personally I think it is sad that people are tied to this ‘tradition’ which unavoidably has to have this so called ‘family approval’, it is such an unhealthy culture.



My simple answer to this discussion is:-

“Don’t marry if he/she can’t accept what you are. It is worse if family is involved, don’t do it”.
