Re: Marrying Within Ethnicity
Yes, its way more comfortable to marry within your own. However, if you click with the man and like him...it doesnt matter if he is from Mars...marry him.
The guys who I come across who can't speak English and are uneducated living in the US are typically from the North.
Fallenpieta, I love Karachi and it's people. We are so awesome.
Finally i have found something in you , which i can adore :)
Re: Marrying Within Ethnicity
uffu pcg, you are contradicting yourself all the time 
initially in your threads you were complaining about the boys in your community being total losers, they were not college educated or high achievers and how their families and they were mortified by career oriented, ambitious girls like yourself etc etc i am guessing now that was your memon community? now you are finding faults with the outside boys, methinks you are just committment phobic 
rest is excuses
Its natural to feel most comfortable within your own ethnicity but it does takes adjustments when you go outside of the family.
Memon's are like Sheikh's right...business oriented people.
Maybe. Sometimes I meet the right guy and I get a suffocation sensation… Thinking…is this it?
I like my variety in men.
OMG. Am I a playa?
In my opinion, a person needs to be open minded about people from other races and ethnicity. I don't mind marrying someone who is from arab or turkish origin as long as she is a good partner and we both can live comfortably without having to include any sort of "culture" in our relationship. Our way of life is Islam and that should be the only culture.

for someone who has so much trouble finding a dude....it's best not to be so picky. ;)
Re: Marrying Within Ethnicity
Arabs and Turkish generally have a lighter skin tone.
Tell me, if you met a muslim south Indian, or a muslim Makrani, what would you do?

Re: Marrying Within Ethnicity
PCG all i would say is that it is easier to marry someone from the same “ethnicity” in more than one way, you are comfortable as no language/cultural differences as well as the fact that parents are more receptive, however you have to realise that this does not assure you a perfect or hassle free relationship, but at the end of the day do what you think is good or who you like, ethnicity, culture, rasmein are all man made things and i dont think they are too tough to overcome.
Secondly i do agree with you requiring an educated guy who is well versed in english as well as can speak fluently (hopefully without an accent), but generalising by saying “uneducated guys of the north” i disagree with that and find that degrading.
Khair my 2 cents :k:
issue resolved, case closed. yayyyy
