Absolutely.
Marrying someone who you dont know AT ALL is asking for trouble...and oodles of it.
Re: I think...
If "knowing someone" is the key to successful marriage, west would have lowers divorce rate on the planet.
Having said that, you off course cant marry someone who happen to ask you to get married while u r shopping at mall.
It is idiotic and irresponsible to marry a stranger.
What are your thoughts?
Re: I think...
^ As i said before, there's risk in any relationship. Personalities are fluid and incoherent. There is no way to know someone completely. We don't even know ourselves completely. And people change. So a couple once perfectly compatible may not be so in the future, and vice versa. But I do think that when we approach as important a life decision as who to marry, people really should consider if this person can be a partner in life and get to know the personality and priorities of this person. Sure, the future is unknown, but the present does not have to be.
Re: I think...
pre marriage times, mostly people are at their best, its difficult to judge them
a few cases i heard, the male party lied during this time, later a lot of troubles erupted in marriage
if a marriage is to be successful it will be
I have seen a lot of cases of arranged marriages where the girl/guy met on their wedding day & they're happy, so its not out of this world if some people still go through it

Yes ! marriage is a life changing decision. Like people say it's not guria gudday ka khel so one must try to know his/her future spouse before marriage because it's a matter of whole life time and desi marriage is not just b/w two individuals but 2 khandans and any negative consequence of a bad marriage is suffered by the families as well.
Having said above I firmly believe that you can not know a person unless and until you start living with him/her. People are very good in portraying a decent image to other for hours & days. You only get to see the real face after marriage .
