What if marriage weren't the default? In a country where your wedding album often feels more important than your compatibility, this book asks the questions that hover unspoken at most dinner tables: Why do we marry? What are we protecting, or performing, when we do? And what would relationships look like if we weren't constantly trying to fit them into a centuries-old box? Blending personal stories, sharp social insight, and voices from across generations, this book isn't a takedown of marriage. It's an invitation to look again under the pressure to comply.

What if marriage weren't the default? In a country where your wedding album often feels more important than your compatibility, this book asks the questions that hover unspoken at most dinner tables: Why do we marry? What are we protecting, or performing, when we do? And what would relationships look like if we weren't constantly trying to fit them into a centuries-old box? Blending personal stories, sharp social insight, and voices from across generations, this book isn't a takedown of marriage. It's an invitation to look again under the pressure to comply. At the rituals we follow out of habit, at the myths that dress themselves up as wisdom. Drawing from rich qualitative data, this work combines deeply personal stories with broader social patterns. Whether you're single, married, divorced, cohabiting, questioning, or somewhere in between, this is for anyone who has ever paused and thought, "Is this really the only way?" Witty, wise, and refreshingly unfiltered, Some Strings Attached opens up the space to ask better questions, not just about marriage, but about intimacy, agency, and what it means to choose someone without losing yourself. To my readers, I believe the true value of my book lies in your personal experience. I'd rather let you form your own unbiased opinion, free from any external influence. As such, I've chosen not to seek reviews or endorsements, allowing you to judge the book solely on its own merit.
