Abstract	The paper entitled Defying the Traditional Norms of Marriage; A Reading on Sophie Tanner’s ‘Reader, I Married Me!’ explore the themes of sologamy and self commitment. The practice of sologamy, or marrying oneself, is a modern phenomenon that questions conventional ideas of marriage and self-identity. In this abstract, notable proponent and practitioner of sologamy Sophie Tanner's book "Reader, I Married Me" is examined. The research examines the cultural, sociological, and psychological ramifications of Tanner's book's discussion of the idea of sologamy. This project's main goal is to present a thorough understanding of sologamy as a new trend within the context of self-expression, self-love, and individual empowerment. The project explores the reasoning behind someone choosing to commit to themselves through a marriage ceremony through a close reading of "Reader, I Married Me," exploring themes of self-discovery, autonomy, and altering social standards. The focus of the analysis is on Chloe’s story, which is examined in the context of sologamy within historical and cultural frameworks. The study clarifies the different societal elements that influence the popularity of sologamy and the discussions it sparks about self-worth, relationships, and personal fulfilment by critically evaluating the book's content. The initiative also looks into sologamy's psychological aspects, taking into account any possible effects on happiness, emotional health, and self-worth. The investigation also covers how sologamy is perceived in society, including the support and opposition it receives as well as the discussions it prompts about individualism and the changing dynamics of commitment. This project explores the social consequences of sologamy in addition to its individualistic aspects. It investigates the connections between sologamy and more general discussions of self-identity within the context of ties to others, friendships, and community service. By doing this, the study illuminates how sologamy redefines both the institution of marriage and the idea of belonging. An insightful comprehension of the sologamy phenomenon can be gained through the analysis of Sophie Tanner's "Reader, I Married Me" The study contributes to a thorough investigation of how sologamy challenges and reshapes conventional concepts of love, commitment, and self-worth by examining its cultural, psychological, and philosophical bases. Insights from this project offer useful perspectives on the changing environments of intimacy and personal development as society struggles to deal with the complexity of contemporary relationships and individual goals.In summary, this project offers a thorough examination of solo marriage through the prism of Sophie Tanner's "Reader, I Married Me." The study contributes to a greater understanding of how unusual practices like sologamy undermine established paradigms of relationships and selfhood by analysing the book's themes, motivations, and social ramifications, to provide insightful viewpoints on the developing nature of human ties as society continues to navigate shifting conceptions of love, identity, and commitment and marriage.
