Well in my case I'm engaged to the cousin of my cousin. I know him since my khal's marriage like 22 years back but never talked with him just know him and his family..well and ya we r not allowed to talk, I get to know about him through my cousin that he is happy with me but dont know how I will react as he is kind of totally a stranger for me...pata nahee dr lagta hai :(
Don't be afraid jaan ! Allah will bless yu, mhm it is a little bit difficult if yu don't get the chance to talk with each other, but it makes after wedding so special to know each other ! so after wedding you have some long conversation with your hubbie ! that little bit shy and love talk hayeee hahah
