Rita Dominic said; “I respect the institution of marriage as my parents were married till they died, and they had a beautiful relationship.”

“The problem is at some point, it begins to annoy you because of how much importance people have placed on it.”

“I do want to marry, and I want to get it right once and for all but in honesty we make such a big deal of it and also pressure people into it.”

“When they eventually rush into this union, they make mistakes because they were only trying to please people.”
