Arranged Marriage! by ebila(m): 7:57pm On Jan 20, 2010 |
I've got a very good friend of mine who's supposed to get married soon to someone her parents selected .She doesn't really love the guy in question but feels she'd get by.Will you agree to an arranged marriage? |

Its not as bad most people from back in the day were married this way and they going on strong 30-40yrs later. |

Re: Arranged Marriage! by Nobody: 9:53pm On Jan 20, 2010 |
arranged marriage can be good or bad depending on who is looking at it: - if anyone reads through the columns of NL, you will realize how many "desperate to marry anyone" people are out there. so to these people, an arranged marriage wouldnt be such a bad idea. - people who can easily meet and interact with people of the opposite sex will have NO PROBLEM in finding a partner by themselves and therefore an arranged marriage will be wrong for them. to each their own! |

Ebonyeyes: And i thought you are the woman of the modern age?are you kidding me? @poster, I thought it has gone with the wind?come to think of it,why will one marry someone arranged for him/her?Either he/she doesn't know what they want or they are desperate and in the case of a man,he doesn't simply know how to say hello to a woman,that's my take. |
Re: Arranged Marriage! by angel4ever(f): 5:47pm On Jan 21, 2010 |
Then y don't u support it? my parents doesnt have d right to tell who and who not to marry dat is why i dont support it. this is a free world do what you wanna do. i wldnt end up to marry an arranged marriaged because am desperate( of course am not), no lady is desperate it just because of their menopausething, and i wldnt at all |

Re: Arranged Marriage! by platinumnk(f): 7:29pm On Jan 21, 2010 |
2 things: If one of the persons is in love with someone else, IT WILL NOT WORK. Arranged Marriages at times Work, I'm a product of a Strong One But honestly men are NOT like they were 30 years ago, so I would definitely leave Arranged marriages alone. |

I am very picky about humans beings so the chances of finding an arranged mate will be slim pickings. If I am forced into an arranged marriage, one person will be dead in six months, max. |
Re: Arranged Marriage! by platinumnk(f): 8:16pm On Jan 21, 2010 |

Anybody who is shoehorned into an 'arranged' marriage is no better than a person who marries for the wrong reasons. Heck they are one and the same. The reluctance to enter an arranged marriage is already an indication that that marriage has problems already. If parents arrange a partner for u whom u choose to embrace u will find it's not much different than if u found the person urself. Unless I don't understand the meaning of arranged marriage I don't believe u can be forced into one. U chose to either for the wrong reasons or the right ones. |

Lol but it's the truth. I don't know how to suffer and smile. I will poison him, if he doesn't get me first. |
Re: Arranged Marriage! by KennyG6(m): 12:45am On Jan 22, 2010 |
you never know, while its not ideal to have someone imposed on you one should never rule out the possibility of the 2 parties actually really liking each other on the long run. Like everything about love, always keep an open mind, |
Re: Arranged Marriage! by ebila(m): 6:42pm On Jan 22, 2010 |
spikedcylinder:Wot if u end up fallin' for him,u go still kill am? Kenny_G:Totally true! But den again,if u already hav som1,u wouldn't even giv d opportunity of like d person. |
