^ Right. I never said only see the picture and go ahead with the marriage. Picture is the FIRST step. You look at the picture and if you like the girl (same goes for girls), you tell your mom or whoever that you wanna go ahead and now see if the personalities match. If the girl also likes you, then you go ahead and meet up. If both click, then you continue meeting because even if you directly meet with the person and completely skip the picture part, they won’t show their trueself only in one meeting.

I hope you see where I am going with this

yeah it looks fine and dandy on paper

but thats the thing, when you look at the pic, what are you evaluating outside of their looks? and imagine being on the receiving end of a “no, sorry, not good looking enough for my boy/girl”… thats gotta hurt! its just kind of insensitive and its places looks far above personality… the FIRST step should be to see if you are compatible through meeting each other. what if her picture is really pretty and you’re all, ok, lets meet up, but she’s completely boring? its still the same result as you going to meet her in the first place and finding out in person that she’s pretty but boring. so why not just go meet her/him from the outset- you can evaluate looks and personality in one go! haha it saves times

as an example, i got told by someone in the extended family that my husband and i were a “bad match” because he’s 6’7" and i’m 5’2"… i have never heard anything more ridiculous in my life concerning my marriage. i mean, seriously?? you figured out our whole relationship from a picture and based off our height?? wow. mad crazy skills, guy, you got a great future in marriage counselling
