Forced marriages do happen even in 2011. Even my family is emotionally blackmailing me to consider proposals which I do not like. There are a whole lot of threads where girls are going through such situations especially for cousin marriages. Even for guys, they are being pressurised to marry a particular girl as opposed to that particular girl which they like to marry.
Unfortunately you are rite.
These answers really annoy me, whether they were meant in jest or not. I wonder how a guy would feel is he was made to feel inadequate by his wife and he has to share his wife with another man?
If you don't love the first wife, leave her - why make her life miserable?

Don't get riled by it. Topic starter is so asking for it.

My problem is that this IS the reality for some women in the sub-continent where multiple marriages are legally acceptable (we're less likely to see this outside the sub-continent). In my extended family I know of two guys (they live in Pakistan) they have second wives - and they married the second time because it was *pasand ki shaadi. *If a man falls in love, he can legitimize his second relationship. If a woman falls in love, she's called characterless - there is a double-standard that I find contemptible.

I believe its matter of convincing, sometimes Parents wins other times kids..... But its wrong to call it emotional blackmailing when they try and convince you to marry guy of their choice. If you keep rejecting they will understand that you wont marry the guy they liked for you.... But yea if you end up marrying the guy then i wud say you let it happen to you.
I thought you were asking if it is possible to fall in love with your spouse after marriage ( most likely arranged)?. In that case, I think it is pretyy natural for two people living together to eventually fall in love.
not one of the perfectly, joyously married folks but....
Pls be honest.
1) Is it possible to fall in love after you are married?
*puke*it would piss me off if a woman or a man has a wonderful spouse, you know one that isn't abusive, that isn't a jerk, that is compromising and loving/caring/respectful that they would even think to look elsewhere for love! if there was abuse and pain even then i really think that both can work it out or work on it but if nothing is improving then separate and divorce first for the sake of the person's sanity that is not happy or doesn't see any change taking place then start all that looking elsewhere for companionship
2) If it happens with you, what will you do?
3) Who will be that one person you will confide in and why?
4) What could be the possible end of your story?
i would hate the thought of 1 forget all these other questions, only if there is total loneliness and pain that is so depressing should any of these other questions even be thought of, they don't make sense to me right now.
