can a girl trust a male friend to give honest marriage advice?

Re: can a girl trust a male friend to give honest marriage advice?

and he has suncceed in pushing his opinion towards you and now has led you to think that the desi way is the wrong way. I agree with him, in arrange marriages you dont get to know the negative side of the partner, but even if u get into a love marriage you dont get to know the negative side of the guy.The first yr of the relationship before marriage is all lovey dovey. Your friend isnt jealous, he just doesnt wana see you get hurt or screwed up by a guy and maybe hes afraid of losing your friendship.

added: no matter how u get married, the desi way, American way or whichever way you choose, there is always gonna be a chance of a marriage to not succeed. It doesnt matter whether its desi or not.
