There was initially a lot of difference between me and my parents regarding my career and study. Finally, they agreed to take up psychological counseling as my career and pursue my studies for it. Similarly, regarding my life partner, they wanted a partner who is economically dependent and mature in handling things. I respected their viewpoint and wanted someone like that, and my husband is that very type of person that we looked for.
