         Conclusion<\/h2>\n

         The very concept of mutual regard and harmony is right of everyone. It is equally important for men to experience respect, honour, dignity, love and harmony in a relationship. Since marriage is said to be a social relationship and comity between two potentially compatible and equal persons, it is certainly very important to maintain the very rapport with mutual behaviour and respect.<\/p>\n
