this is usually the first question asked when someone announces that they are going to get married.
now…if its a love marriage there are many ways a couple may have met…it could be through a friend, at university, work, in a club, on the bus stop, on a holiday, on the net, on a matrimonial site, marriage agency, speed dating…or absolutely anywhere.
both the girls and guys family have a right to know where they met…thats agreed…
However, what should someone tell nosy relatives etc?
I mean they usually only ask so they have something to gossip about…if someone met at uni…they’ll say “were they studying or romancing?”…and they will have something bad to say about anywhere/anyhow a person meets…
alot of people wouldnt want to tell their relatives how they met…cuz no1 likes to be gossiped about.
for this reason , most people just say “we met through a friend/family friend”…
I have myself heard many bored aunties/relatives talk bad about certain people in my family who had love marriages…mainly on how they met etc…and they talk very badly about them and they even make so many enquiries about it…just to find out if the person is telling the truth or not!
I just want to know from married people, what did they tell nosy relatives etc? the truth or did they make something up? did it work?
and for those who are not married…but will soon get married…you will be asked this question too…what will you say to them to shut them up? considering some people keep asking and go around asking everyone (cuz they have nothing better to do than gossip). for example on the wedding day…they would go to ur inlaws family and even ask what the story is from their side!!!
Some guy in Pakistan (aopparently they have rishta unkils as well :halo: ) told my father about a family in Canada and dad told my mom and we exchanged pix and blahblahblah.
And in laws know this story too :halo:
NEVER tell relatives or strangers how you really met. (I should follow my own advice )
we met before we were born…then got separated after we were born and now we became reunited again
but seriously…what would you say Sara?
you see I have this one cousin who keeps asking and asking for every little tiny detail…like exactly what happened on the first meeting, how we felt…and every detail…Im dreading her
i was joy-riding on my khota one day and there she was in all her glory and blessings and she was asking for a ride wthi her lovely thumb pointed to the heavens and i asked her to park her on my khota’s ass and shefell in love instantly with that khota..khota confirmed to her ke bigger khota is sitting right nxt to her and she decided to fall in love with me and I being a khota was planning to fall anyway so i fell in love with her :love:
Impulse.. she is one confident lady and can hold her own. I mean usually we dunn have a problem tellin ppl but whe airay gheray natthu kheray get too inquisitive we mess around with them, flip the question back at them, start asking other personal questions get them off balance.
How did you meet him? Er I think I can guess,but I won’t say :p, ill pm ya tho if i’m right.
What did you tell your parents?
If yours are anything like mine, they’ll make up a perfectly good story, i wouldn’t worry abt it..coz no matter how you look at it, ppl will make stupid **** up,if you met him online, he’s a greencard seeker, if you met him in school ure a slut etc etc
Lol its kinda funny, when one kid wants to have a love marriage but parents are like NOOOOOO “falaan falaan ki beti ne arranged marriage ki!” they dunno how big of a lie ti is
thats so true…if I had met him at uni or somewhere…people wouldve thought god knows what we’ve been doing…and since hes not from my country…I suppose its a good thing…cuz at least they cant think sick things.
^ Because Afridi, people like you will say things like "god knows what htey were doing" , thats' why they wont' say the truth. Again no matter how innocent the relationship may have been, if it's not a pure arranged marriage, ppl'll talk crap.
Impulse, no matter how/when you met him, they'll find something negative abt it just to talk crap
