It all sounds like a bit of pride and prejudice to me. I can imagine the future wife to be quite insulted. We don't still live in the days where the parents found a husband for their daughters, or do we?

Lol, this reminds me someone has signed up with my mail into a site called Mudaliyar Matrimony.


I keep receiving mails from (indian I think) parents who wanna marry me with their sons, I must have a great profile there

If you want a good joke on a friend I recomend this, he'll be puzzled for a while.

As I said, I think it charming.

My life, my parent's lives, my kid's lives, all are lived in a way that it would never occur to any of us to do any such thing. This is neither a complaint nor a brag, just a fact. But lives differ and what can I say, I found it charming. I seriously doubt that the intended bride was in any way insulted. I am more than prepared to believe that she is completely capable of speaking for herself on the issue of whom she will or will not marry. So relax and take pleasure in a custom different from your own.


And again, best wishes to the happy couple.
