Some Pakistanis do date but majority do not.

The ones who do usually meet someone, date for a couple of years or less even and then tell their parents…following which is a huge Bollywood scene where the parents dont agree and the children are being torn to shreds in the process…then magically everyone realizes that bachon ki khushi mein hi sabki khushi hai and all is well…until we get to the nikah and the evil MIL bares her teeth and asks for a car, furniture, cash and medical insurance in jehez and the larki valey demand $500,000 in Mehr.

Thats how we do.

You forgot just one teeny tiny detail. Sometimes the MIL won’t just stop at the demand for a huge jahez. She might vow to herself that her sole mission in life is to wreak havoc in the bahu’s life. This stems from the “bahu meri pasand ki nahin thi, ” attitude. In the absence of her son, she’ll throw dagger-like looks at bahu and hurl cutting remarks at her. And in front of her son, she’ll play the well-meaning victim. MIL wants to hone her acting skills in case Bollywood calls her up and decides to cast her in the new drama serial “Saas Se Bura Koi Nahin.” LOL.
