Is it advisable for married women to give out their numbers?

Marriage they say is a union between a man and woman. It is also a commitment and a promise of love to one another. Even though it comes with its own ups and downs it is a beautiful experience.

Of late while there are a lot of people who are towing the marriage lane, thousands are divorcing due to one reason or the other. But the question is why get married and end up divorcing?

Men mostly blame the women for being the cause of the divorce because of their relationship with the opposite sex. Sharing contacts with the opposite sex for a married woman in a society like ours is seen as a wrong thing to do.

As a married woman, one is expected to keep to herself and avoid contact with the opposite sex. Sometimes sharing contacts is not a bad thing especially if it’s on a good motive. The woman should only make sure it’s on platonic level and state her grounds that she is married and will not compromise in case the opposite sex starts making advances.

On the other hand, to avoid any complications, a married woman should not exchange contacts with a man she doesn’t know. What are your thoughts?
