I think we should all be careful before we condemn arranged marriages. The other alternative to arranged marriages is for boys and girls to strike out on their own in order to find true love. However, a necessary side effect of this is the dating game filled with players, heartbreaks and the friendzone. In the end, it leaves most people involved in the dating game heartbroken, manipulating, and scheming in order to get love.

On the other hand, while arranged marriages might not have love in the beginning, over time the husband and wife in an arranged marriage can develop their love for each other. Besides, this is the status quo considering that even when people marry the man/woman of their dreams, the love eventually whittles down and marriage becomes a grudging duty that people have to put up with.

A good case in point is the high rate of divorce in the Western world and the sadness it brings to everyone involved, including the man, woman and children.

In conclusion, let's think deep and hard before we jump to condemning our culture.

Warris this one saying?

I know I spoke in high-level language, but I can't really break it down for you. If you are having a hard time, do check the dictionary. Alternatively, you can ask me for further explanations on words/phrases that are causing you difficulty. Thanks.

Forced marriage. She was given out even before dem born her .

How far



Boys can't see far only men do



Enjoy your Chelsea lol

henriettttta:







It's your kind of people that sell off their daughters for one grain of rice
The lady clearly doesn't want the marriage with that man yet they forced her
I don't see how that marriage will be a joyful one for her in the years to come



P.S. It's not "our culture"... it's "Your" culture

Let me make it clear to you how the marriage could be a joyful one for her in future... With this kind of marriage, the emotional attachment starts at rockbottom. Meaning that she doesn't expect much from it. In essence, this means that when good things happen to the marriage, she'll be quite taken aback and would really appreciate it.

Compare this to a "free marriage" where the lady expects sunshines and rainbows. Only to discover that marriage is hard work and not all it appears to be. Like the saying goes, all women want a wedding, not a marriage.

Like I've already stated, a good case in point is the divorce rate in the west. Also note that about 70 percent of divorces are initiated by women. That's to tell you how happy they have become in their "free marriages".

I'm actually not a Northerner, so it's not my culture per se. I just like to view things from the perspective of the other side.

Finally, I see you're a lady... if you've been in the dating game for a while, you'll know that it comes with a lot of baggage and heartbreaks that no one expects. This applies to both male and female participants of the dating game.

Hope you get my point now?
