Re:

So how does this girl meet people (forget rishta…even make new female friends) if she’s not willing to talk to strangers? What does she do at school and/or work? Refuse to communicate with all the strangers around her? After all, she has no idea what’s going on in their head either.

Why is the girl thinking so negatively? What if he turned out to be the perfect guy for her? And besides…there are MANY cases where women married a guy who was their 1st cousin…or even a guy who she met through family…and AFTER marriage…he turned out to be a jerk. Nothing in life is guaranteed. If the girl doesn’t want to date and get to know the guy due to religious/cultural beliefs then that’s fine. But the logic being given so far behind not sharing the number seems childish.

And I’m not sure what country this girl lives in but its very common for strangers to talk to each other in the U.S. if the other person gives an indication that they’re open to having a conversation. I’ve held small conversations with strangers (men AND women) at the gym, various events, even at the airport/airplane (usually person sitting near me) etc. Its not as earth shattering as you’re making it out to be…at least not here in the U.S.
