Hindu culture : Does it increase love and affection between Husband and Wife if they eat in one dish ? Does it reduce matrimonial discord?

New generation rejects everything which was once cherished as values by old generation.

I have seen two traditions:

1) In some families, I have seen that wife will eat only after husband has eaten. And she will use the same dish in which husband has eaten.

2) In some families, I have seen that husband and wife will eat together from one dish.

Now these traditions are less seen. Our court case files are full of husband wife disputes. The disputes start within 2 years of marriage. It is difficult to understand these disputes. Issues are trivial and irrational.

They lack rapport.

If two person eat from same dish, it is bound to increase rapport between these two persons. The disputes are less likely to happen.

But these traditions are not much seen. Times have changed. Marriages have become fragile.
