Re: Girls who marry older men
It may be a basis of necessity. I know someone who is about 20/21, eldest girl of a man with 7 daughters... he's a simple businessmen who's earnings are ok. He married his daughter to a really rich, but really decent man who's about 36/37...
the groom's side were looking for a decent girl, and the girl's side was I guess looking for stability... they both got what they wanted. In a country like pakistan, the prospect of marrying off 7 daughters could be troublesome as it is, so I guess this decision was based on necessity, warna no father would opt to give his daughter away to a man who is 16 years her senior
