Re: So...How did you meet?
cuz its none of their business....read the whole post carefully and then you'll understand...people ONLY ask so they can talk bad about you....and make a mountain out of a mole.
Re: So...How did you meet?
its better than having people finding out later that you lied.
Re: So...How did you meet?
Why should I care if 1 of my cousins or friends lied abt the circumstances in which she met her hsuband? If someone does care, they are obviously pretty pathetic losers who have nothing better to do.
Re: So...How did you meet?
its not exactly lieing....its telling half the truth.....the other half they dont need to know.
Re: So...How did you meet?
lol alrighty.
Re: So...How did you meet?
If a family member or a "friend" lies about that to you, they obviously don't trust you and don't think much of you.
Re: So…How did you meet?
Eh my close friends (and everyone on gupshup 
) would know the truth and the other truth..lol
Re: So...How did you meet?
there is a SPECIFIC breed of aunties, that i LOVE to PISS OFF!
knowing pir fraudz a bit, gupshup wise that is, i used this line many times:
"in the pool in that club"
and left those aunties in awe and surprize.. :D
Re: So…How did you meet?
the thing is its not only aunties who do this…its younger girls too…I mean my cousins would give me the hardest time.
I remember they were teasing my other cousin on her walima day about the wedding night and were asking for details of what happened. I said to them to leave the poor girl alone cuz shes getting embarassed…and they said to me “you just wait when its ur turn…we’ll make sure we ask you too” not that I will tell them.
I dont understand why people are so nosey about it…
Sara…sorry I just realised you asked if my parents know the truth…yeah they know the 100% truth and so does his family. but I dont want to tell the outsiders…cuz I really cant be asked to explain it…cuz its a long story…so something like “we met through a friend” will probably work.
however, even with that…on the wedding day I heard these people asking around for that friend who the bride and groom supposedly met through. these people have too much free time on their hands:naraz:
Re: So...How did you meet?
Blah just ignore it. On your wedding day you won't even notice, and will be too happy to care. :) Parents might be okay with however u met him (in the sense that they're not gonna totally disqualify him based on where you met), but not so much that they'll be open about it and have ppl badmouthing them and especially their daughter; that's how it is wit us at least. They know the truth 100 percent . They have their version o fwhat happened and i'm perfectly okay with it.

Re: So...How did you meet?
"kiya kartay ho" ?
thats my personal favourite question (depending on WHO and in WHAT tone are they asking)
"ghas khod ta hoon aunty, agriculture ka business hay"
received MANY hot words from mum, dad, family relatives that i should watch my mouth.. specially when its a bee-jamalo (fire-starter) type aunty..
and i'm always like, so? they wanna ask this so in future they can do something, i will make sure i slap'em hard enough that they get the hint, its THEIR izzat if they tackle me..
Re: So...How did you meet?
i actually told one of my relatives that i woke up one morning and realized he was in my pocket so we figured, we should just get married. she didn't fine it funny but she didn't ask again cause she was horrified at my response. it wasn't proper according to her but i did get a kick out of it :)

Re: So...How did you meet?
lol, sounds like a good way to say one-night-stand...:D...but thats bad, u shudn't say stuff like that.
Re: So...How did you meet?
Well obviously that wasn't the case . . . but the point is why ask all those nagging questions if your sole reason is to criticize. Ultimately what matters is that marriage lasts a lifetime and then some and I have that InshaAllah.
But, if someone wants to see it that way, that's fine. If they want to talk, that's fine. I couldn't care less. However, i have no reason to answer all their questions and I won't especially if I don't trust them. I'm sure they've come up with a million stories by now and they probably all paint me and him in this horrible light. and that's okay. . . let em have their fun. If nothing else, i'm sure theyre being creative.

hahahahha thats hilarious!!
well one of my cousin here met his wife through AOL and it took them 7 yrs to get married and now masha'allah they r such a cuuuutee couple. No one in relatives know about their meeting and stuff b4 their marriage except our family. And subhanallah my parents never interfered or said anything about it to them or anyone in relatives. When they were gettin married we were told by them if anyone ask how they met.. just say some through my freinds. And yes there were ppl at the weddin keep asking how they met b/c we r punjabi and girl's family was Maymaan and no one ever in my family got married to Mayman.
Anyways..now masha'allah they are happy..most of the family relatives don't even talk to my cousin or his wife b/c my cousin refused to marry those auntie's daughter :/ and im talking about my cousin's khala/phouphou/chachi stuff!

my cousin recently married a girl he met online also. Alhamdulillah they make the cutest couple. I was also told not to tell anyone how they met and if anyone asked say "through friends". This is perhaps the best way to explain it to those nosey relatives. Besides...no matter what you tell them...they will always find a way to talk trash behind your back.
Re: So...How did you meet?

Re: So...How did you meet?
