This is mainly for the girls, but guys can answer too if they like
Ok so you have been offered two proposals, both guys are nice, but have some differences.
Option 1: Born and bred in Pakistan, qualified as a doctor, nice personality, looks average, he’s a cousin of yours so you know what the family is like. However his family has stated that he might just settle in Pakistan even after marriage and would want you to move from the UK/USA to Pakistan.
Option 2: Born and bred in the UK/USA, works in a good position at a bank , is alright looking, is well settled. However this rishta is from outside of your family so you don’t know the family that well.
If you had to choose from the two above, which one would it be?
They chose the first. I think because they felt they knew them better & that we would have much more in common career wise. The settling query is still there, but I guess for us other things were more important than location.
hmmmm i know that the concept of cousin marriage is still very much there in our elders minds, but i had no idea it was still so normal for our generation...
