Re: Re-marriage
that looks like a nice celebration!
Re: Re-marriage
Nice looking couple, at this age re-marring is to keep each other company, or else they still have all the energy as a young couple.
Re: Re-marriage
I guess at this age when old people feel being ignored by other members of their family they need some partner to support them and be with them always during this time...and agree^ cute couple

Er I think older people get married for the same reason as young er people...
Re: Re-marriage
do you mean the physical satisfaction factor?
hehehe - can be - i shouldnt be underestimating them
Re: Re-marriage
Well, nobody gets married JUST for sex. Thats like buying the plane just to get the peanuts 
Re: Re-marriage
Haha - good one but that can sex can be one of the reasons...
Re: Re-marriage
A perk...not a reason!
Re: Re-marriage
I think u guys are also forgetting the other reason for a second marriage.. Death.. :(
I am not sure if I want to write all this down or if I have the ability to write this down but anyway, I am giving it a try...
I am 19 years old now and my mother passed away when I was 12 and my younger sister was only 9...When that happened our home was completely crushed...I mean it was extremely hard for all of us specially for my father who was looking after his children, his home and his job...my father was literally cooking and taking care of us like a mother.
When I was 16, I got the news that he might get married again and honestly, we (my sister and I) were not happy....those days were horrible....still, the date was finalized and he got married and as for the celebration, we made it clear to him that we (his kids) do not want any kind of huge event because *I *was and am not able forget my mother and see someone else in her place and my father completely understood that. There was a very small function and it did not go well because me and my sister started to cry like anything in front of everyone!!!! The only reason was that we were terribly missing our mother and by the way, we still do as nobody in this world can take place on my mother...and there are lots of other things I cannot explain here...
Anyway, I am glad that my father kept the celebrations low and listened to us and I think if anyone is re-marrying, he/she should take the advice of his/her family but I seriously don't have any expertise in the field of marriage or re-marriage.
Re: Re-marriage
maham, i'm really sorry about your mom :/
i think you make a very valid point about remarriage... when kids are involved, should the celebrations be big or small? i guess it depends on how the whole family feels... it must have been hard for everyone involved. was it your step mother's first marriage?

yes, it was her first marriage...and honestly, my sister and I totally ruined it because we were crying like babies in front of everyone but we were really missing mummy and we were quite small...it was simply one of the worst days of my life.
Re: Re-marriage
^ oh im really sorry to hear that, may allah grant u and ur family strength
i just wanted to add that if it was someones first marriage is at 30 or 40, surely their age shouldnt be a factor in curtailing a big celebration, if its a 2nd marriage or if there are other family members involved thats another thing but age purely shouldnt be a factor
Re: Re-marriage
Well, you maybe right nobody gets married JUST for sex, some people’s sex life become very active once they reach the age of 50+, their desire gets even stronger, as sometime at mid-age they’ve too many responsibilities that they don’t to seem to enjoy themself, mostly for men they cannot do without women, whereas women can do without man what say?
You see with the couple, when the wife dies man remarry , whereas if the husband dies , some of them don’t even remarry and remain single, but not for men.
Re-marrying is not a bad thing only depend on the situition of the life of the people.
