Lol, usually it is the 'rents who will do this and they will be aware of your requirements.

Most people confuse arranged marriage to being forced into marriage and they couldn't be more wrong. It's could be something as simple as organizing an event, have both parties meet (they know why they are there. . . so no pretense or coyness) and you talk.

I consider that as "giving a push", not really arranged

and most parents consider what THEY think are suitable requirements, not yours.

Yeah, those are the overbearing parents looking out for their own self interest. undecided

About Betrothal, it is not as archaic or horribly, horribly bad as some think it is. I know a few girls who were betrothed to guys (not old men ooh) when they were ye high and right now, they are together and very happy.

I guess in the end it just depends what the marriage means to the parents. . . Protecting your self interest or having your child's happiness at heart.

No o, people don't confuse nada.

With the situation you described above, its more like a blind date than an arranged marriage. Here, both parties meet, test the waters and see if they are compatible. They don't have to get married if they don't really want to.

With arrangee, you have to marry the person. Prior meeting or not.

Arranged marriage. Both families have a mutual understanding what should take place.

Love is not a valid reason to get married to someone. Love fades.

When I was younger I had an arranged marriage through the mosque. It didnt work out and I have a child from that marriage. Thankfully, five years ago I married again to someone who I loved and knew well and still do.

Arranged marriage is not it at all. So intending arranged couple beware.

Even marriage between two best friends that have known each other is not that easy not to talk more of two strangers.
