Love or Sheer Stupidity?

Re: Love or Sheer Stupidity?

if its just the marriage thing, as in marrying a guy she doesnt know much about… then she should really do some sort of investigation… or let her parents do it prior to her moving.

If its the moving away to another country… i dont think its “Stupidity” :slight_smile:

a lot of people move away after they get married and they do come back and visit. Sometimes its even easier to start off a marriage being away from everyone :k:

I know a few girls in the same scenario and they are all still married after years and years. When chatting was considered a bad thing hehe

Re: Love or Sheer Stupidity?

but u know these days, a lot of parents in pakistan dont want their daughters marrying a valaiti for the same reason. They have no idea what the guy is doing overseas.. and i total take their side on that.

Just, sometimes a really good person gets missed though

^ :k:

You can hangout with someone but cannot claim to know them fully. How much do you know about the other person in an arranged marriage? The best you can do is some risk management to your satisfaction, but you cannot cover all risks fully - in any given situation. You really get to know about a person when you start living with them.

And wow, 9 years is a lifetime!

I am getting the feeling the lady in question is actually a guppan. I know someone who is getting married at the end of this year and lives in Canada moving to Dubai. Could be coincedence too.

^ ya Allah! :hehe: quality input from you aisha!

Discussing situations is good, discussing people is not. Keep a scenario to a scenario, don’t put in faces and names.

I think the parents should visit the guy in the UAE, you can never know a person enough before marriage..

Re: Love or Sheer Stupidity?

Haai haai … yaar … let her do it. There are few things in life which are more fun when u think a little bit devilishly about them. Love is one of them :wink:

Aisha, we all know that the only people you know are guppies. But believe it or not, people off of GS exist too. :halo:

Re: Love or Sheer Stupidity?

^ haha.. sorry

Straight_Up, to be honest, the situation isnt limited to just two people talking on the net.

I know, actually no, I have heard multiple stories of girls and guys getting married to people in different countries, the parents not doing the right investigation.. having the nikah done... and then in a month or two, the poor souls sitting at home divorced... really. And this aint just girls.. ive seen it happen to guys as well, and it really messes them up.

On the other hand, I have seen many people, meet people online, get married, move to another country and live very happily.

Make sure their sorties add up, specially if they are wild like Texas chain saw massacre, u know... involving ppl chopping each other.
