Proposal

How long does a girl’s family take to respond to a proposal?

Re: Proposal

Very very long if the boy has no job.

Re: Proposal

^ hahah good one.

Assuming everything checks out....

Re: Proposal

lol! @diwana

How long has it been since you are waiting for an answer...

Re: Proposal

^ about a week

Re: Proposal

That is very different from family to family. Some of them say Yes or No instantly, but others take several weeks or even months to make a decision. If there have been any previous marriages in that family, like older sisters of the girl your proposed, the amount of time it took them then, would be a good indicator.

Re: Proposal

Actually in that case the decision should be really quick. But it would not be one that would please the guy. :)

Re: Proposal

could take up to a month for the first reply.....depending on how seriously they are considering the rishta.
they will likely be doing their homework and that can take a few weeks.

what's the hurry?

Re: Proposal

Yes, I assumed they would not want to break his heart and would just stay quiet till asked many times. :)

Re: Proposal

If there is some jasoos type (Chinese 007) relative in girl's close family, it could be months....

Re: Proposal

^lol!

Sometimes silence can be an answer too, it means "no" but if you have a mediating party that introduced you guys they probably have a clearer idea about what is happening...

Re: Proposal

It can take up to a month, depending on how deep they are investigating.
