lahori it just comes down to the fact that parents want their kids to be happy in the end.
They reckon if the guy is in a hi-fi job, he must be earning money, hence he can keep their daughter happy finacially. For them, the financial security is the main thing.
things are changing though. Parents are realising that not only doctors and lawyers make good money. These days, a fresh** IT graduate** may be making the same money as a fresh doctor, or even more.. who knows.
I dont even know what the big deal is about being an engineer… but i guess back in the old days, being an engineer was a huge thing.
In regards to being a lawyer.. go to pakistan or india.. noone thinks anything of law. Seriously. I had a friend who was studying law whilst her sister was a doctor… everyone thought she must have been the dumb one in the family… hello, it takes the same amount of grades to get into law as it does to get into med.
So yeah… depends on where you are.
Having said that, girls love a man whose got a good education. Doesnt have to be making mad money, or making any money at all. As long as the guy is driven.. and knows good frmo bad… and is an all round nice guy and an achiever… it’s all good
thanks ..
Well, lawyers make good money in Canada depending on your position and what you studied.
But that’s something i don’t understand why education is so important in marriage, when it should things like, love, understanding, caring, giving, compromising etc. I don’t know how a doctor would make me any happier compare someone who is high school graduated. Am i the only on here who doesn’t care too much about education when it comes to marriage?
Like someone in my family said to me "get ur degree we’ll get u (insert a good fathers job here) daughter. I don’t care if the girls dad is a rickshaw driver or a doctor, i only care about the girl and her family views/upbringing compare to social status.
okay lets put it this way. you are gona marry your daughter and you get to know about a guy. you don’t know anythinig about him .. how would you gona judge his nature, his love, his understanding or all these things? these are the part of the personality which are get exposed when you spend some time together and normally when marriages are being arranged these personality traits are left on luck and the traits which are obvious, can be seen are judged i.e. his degree and other stuff you mentioned.
