Re: What do gora parents think when their son/daugher marries a Pakistani?
I understand that gora parents don't get in the way of their adult children' decisions, but they must have an opinion. Not every gora or gori is just completely independent of their parents, many do have very close relationships with them (unlike what the stereotype is).
So when a gora or gori marries a Pakistani, what do their parents think?
I know what 95% of Pakistani parents think, so just curious what the other side thinks.
In my particular case they were thrilled and so was my family. Everyone was happy. They told me this then and they tell me this on cards and on the phone over the years. They read books on Islam/Pakistan and are interested, they were into the wedding, they thought the union was a blessing and were very happy about the marriage and vice versa for my family. They talk with my family and everyone gets along. I don't know if it is unusual but I've been very lucky to have married into such a great family and they feel the same way about mine as well. Super nice ppl.
