The interesting scenarios PCG has come across aren’t terribly uncommon. I’ve actually come across some rather odd situations as well (though not personally but through friends of mine and other acquaintances). One such situation includes:

-A friend of mine was dating (not quite dating in the western sense though) an Afghan gentleman she met through some friends at uni. According to her, what attracted her to him was that he was quite open minded and rather liberal, independent (in other words, free from parental meddling), living on his own, paying his own way through uni and was basically self made. After about a year and a half and about to get engaged, she learns that he’s already married. Apparently, his parents insisted on him getting married (quite young, he was 18-19 at the time and is now 26) to the daughter of a family friend and he basically agreed - except that he moved out shortly after the wedding and basically got on with uni and life as if nothing had happened. The poor girl lives with his parents, who don’t seem mind to the situation.

That’s just sad for everyone involved, except the guy maybe I don’t know. How did he agree to marry the girl in the first place?
