Now, Kardashian sisters must be feeling good. Because they can understand well how it feels like having all sisters. We know having a sister can come in handy most of the time, especially if you have an elder one. You can share all your secrets with her, you can seek the best advice for her whenever you are facing any trouble or you can talk about your boyfriends. Now, what else you want more. Having a sister is like a true blessing if you have one.

Not because they are your secret keepers, but they are there with you all the time and you have got her back whenever you need her help. Even researchers are also showing that having a sister makes you happier, kinder and more optimistic.

According to a study conducted by De Montfort University and Ulster University, having a sister makes you happier, kinder and more optimistic. While carrying the study, researchers have interviewed over 570 young peoples between the ages of 17 and 25 to examine and assess them in terms of happiness and overall mental health. From the researcher’s point of view, they have found that having a sister really changed the dynamic of their happiness.

One of the lead authors, Professor Tony Cassidy said, “It could be that boys have a natural tendency not to talk about things. With boys together it is about a conspiracy of silence not to talk. Girls tend to break that down.”

Having at least one girl in your family is a good thing that helps you cope up with problems

It looks like sibling rivalry with a sister is a good thing for kids because the study also said that growing up with at least one girl in the family also makes people more able to cope up with their problems. This is because sisters are more likely to talk about their grievances with their siblings.

“Sisters appear to encourage more open communication and cohesion in families,” Cassidy says. “However, the brothers seem to have an alternative effect. Emotional expression is fundamental to good psychological health and having sisters promotes this in families.”

Girls who had sisters tend to be more independent and achievement-oriented

The study also found that girls who had sisters tended to be more independent and achievement orientated. Researchers have noticed the effects were stronger among children from broken homes and said that this suggested that sisters rely on each other more for support when parents get divorced.

So, if you have a crazy and annoying sister (no matter whether younger or elder) that drives you crazy sometimes, having her around is the best thing as the study confirms. If you have a sister to lean on, you are blessed.

Love or arranged marriage? Still, many people are confused between these two while choosing one for them. But nowadays, where everyone is dating online and exploring love, going for an arranged marriage might sound a bit old school for many. Interestingly, this concept has been a part of our culture for centuries and it still holds great importance in our society.

Many of the people opt for arranged marriages as compared to love marriages because the success rate of these marriages is higher than love marriages. It is because of several reasons like minimal expectations, social compatibility, trust in each other, etc.

Have a look at possible reasons due to which arrange marriages are still so successful in India.

1. Fewer expectations from both the sides

In an arranged marriage, we hardly know each other. So, it takes time to understand your partner and what he/she wants from you. However, in an arranged marriage, one cannot expect much from another person as you never know whether he feels the same or not. When you know a person before marriage, things are totally different. The expectation level is much in this case and the chances of getting complaints also increase. But in the case of arranged marriages, there are fewer expectations from each other, so there are no complaints which make you both lead a happy life.

2. Social compatibility with each other

We know love is blind. The reason arranged marriage success rate is higher because couples are socially compatible with each other. When you fall in love, you fall in love with the person. However, when you get into matrimony, you marry their family and culture as well. Lots of matrimony sites are there where you can look for a suitable partner for yourself according to your moral values and beliefs. For a person who is not from the same social upbringing, adjusting in the new environment would be difficult. So, this thing rarely happens when the couples have an arranged marriage.

In love marriages, people from two different worlds will come together where the beliefs and moral values will not match. Some prefer this and some not. In arranged marriages, these things are kept in mind before choosing a partner, this is why they look for the same community and religion.

4. Your parents have a better understanding of what’s best and perfect for you
