Sneak Peek Into India’s Matrimony
Gleeden was launched in India in April 2017 and hit a boom in subscriptions after the Supreme Court gave a judgement decriminalising adultery in India in 2018. During the last count, it has reported around eight lakh subscribers.
A survey also reported that the divorce rate in India is just 1%, the lowest in the world, wherefrom every 1,000 couples only 13 couples split. Only 5% of the couples marry for love and the rest of the Indian marriages are still fixed by families.
Additionally, 49% of married people in India revealed that they had an intimate relationship with someone other than their spouse, again a major part of the percentage included women.
Does Your City Top The Cheating List?
According to Gleeden, Bengaluru has the highest number of subscribers, around 1.35 lakh residents looking for an extramarital affair.
Around 43,200 women and 91,800 men have subscribed to the website.
According to the marketing specialist of Gleeden, we can perhaps call Bengaluru as the “infidelity capital” of India with almost 27% of active users from the city out of the total number of subscribers on the app.
Mumbai stands as a runner up followed by Kolkata, New Delhi, and Pune.
Do you live in one of the above-listed cities?
Well, irrespective of the city, it ultimately depends on our partners and us whether we are going to maintain our end of the relationship or not.
Also, if one continues to truly love and practise fidelity towards his/her partner, the same can be expected in return.
