Re: Marrying out of your culture

I don't plant to marry outside my culture (the guy must be a Pakistani). Caste doesn't matter. But my my family won't be marrying me off into a family other other Punjabi or urdu-speaking (i.e. sindhi, balochi and pathan) because there will be a huge cultural differences and issues and adjustment will be a great problem.

The one who wants to get married to someone from outside their culture have no issues , but other around them do though.
I have no issues with this.

I don't see the problem, I think most people would rather the person be Asian, but if they're Muslim and 'the one' then why not?

Re: Marrying out of your culture

I would if the guy was right, I know my parents, esp. Dad wouldn't have a problem but I prefer Pakistani, mainly someone who's Punjabi (not their first tongue since I cant speak punjabi but their family's second tongue should be punjabi and first obviously Urdu) and thank god my fiance is. Totally makes everything x10 easier, IMO.

Re: Marrying out of your culture

Ashy my both sisters got married in urdu speacking family as we are urdu speaking. But their in laws life style is totally change.... One sister in-laws are religious people (But not conservative) and my other sister in-laws are conservative... we have different life style and environment (like we are west and they are east) and they have as much adjustment issues as other people have. So you can't say that if you get married in your own caste you will not have adjustment issues.

For me... marrying outside of my culture is not a issues as long as he is understanding and caring.

Re: Marrying out of your culture

not only desi men would go to heaven, but once in heaven - they will act like a desi man. Parosi kee hoor ko dekh dekh ke aankhian maarian ge aur ishqiya shair parhain ge
