Redefining Relationships and Challenging Traditional Norms

The increasing number of people opting out of marriage suggests a shift in societal perception of relationships. The example of a friend accepting her husband's bisexuality and redefining the terms of their relationship demonstrates a growing trend of relationships being defined based on individual needs rather than adhering to traditional norms. This rigidity in defining relationships can pose challenges, particularly for young people who feel pressured to conform to societal rules about exclusivity, timing, and milestones in relationships. This highlights the need for individuals to prioritize what feels right for them and their partners rather than adhering to predefined norms and rules, including the concept of monogamy.
