How come November sucked?"
Mostly emotionally. Had a tough one and I got exam right in the first week of December so I can't even focus on my emotional instability and only gotta focus on studies.
Aside from that I didn't get to read many book but the books I did read were all new favourites so that's a good thing :)
Sorry I might just start ranting if I begin!

I prefer arranged than unarranged. I am not intimately into anyone but wish to have a child. If I was arranged it would be great.
I myself will not have the urge to find myself Mrs. Right. I will not be bothered to. So parents will be best to arrange it for you.
Mod

Mostly u dont know the other person.
I don't know where this started but I live in India and all the people I know got into arranged marriage. While I am not against love marriage I think parents can make a better decisions about our lives than us. I agree that marrying to a stranger is really weird and one must know the guy/girl you are marrying but parents know what is the best for us. Afterall they brought us to the place where we stand today.

I don't quite agree that (all) parents know what is best for us though. My take on arranged marriages (and all other subjects for that matter) is that I think one should be free to choose and do what feels best (and as long as you don't hurt anybody else with your choice). So for you if that is an arranged marriage, I'm all for it. But if you don't feel comfortable with an arranged marriage, if it goes against what you think is right, than I think an arranged marriage is wrong.
Where I come from marriages are voluntary so I know that my upbringing has influenced my opinion. I for one am extremely glad my parents don't get to say who I have a relationship with. But I do want to keep an open mind and if both parties are happy with an arranged marriage, I'm all for it.

And no one really knows about the person.

It is interesting but a lot more scary.

According to me in case of girls arranged marriage is the best .And it is bestest as decision is taken by the parents and parents do the best for their children .I m agree with aqsa that you dont know eachother well .But according to me it creates more charm .And the one things pairs are already made by Allah .So the one who ll be your partner is already chosen .And rest is your destiny that is already written . Arranged marriages are more successful according to me .
I feel that arranged marriages are successful. Love is uncontrollable like the weather. At least your parents know who they are.

I am glad the girl had the choice to say yes or no. But what if it doesn't work out ??? God I hate it.

Not in all cases it becomes difficult to compromise according to me Aqsa .It depends on girl that she want to compromise or not .A girl can make her life beautiful by compromising on things or can make her life hell by her conflicts no matter marriage is arranged or not .
If u love someone firstly tell your parents about him .And never ever break ur parents trust coz a broken trust can never ever b regain .So decision taken by parents is best and always proves right So just trust your parents and pray to Allah too and he ll do best in your favor .
Knowing about one person is not enough the we should know the whole background of the person whom you are getting married so parents have the ability to take best decision and they know more better about the background and the whole family .
This was of another site of another thread.How Would You Eat The Person Above You?
Aiyanah: what a bizarre thread
i will make sliders of you with an onion and honey glaze, and chillinaise.
you will be delicious on perfectly toasted buns
Me: @Aiyanah. Exact what my thoughts were. I don't think I would eat anyone here. Not to mention I'm vegetarian. I think I would leave you guys out and just have a salad. If you were being served at a restaurant I would ask for my money back and report the place. I definitely would sue the place.

True
Mod
I was talking taking into account that there is no kne else that either of the person likes. So then, even parents dont have the whole idea. Esp if it is out of family. It's also new for them. And for us. And when they ask the girl or guy if they like the person, what are they going to say??? Based on ehat should they day yes or no??? It's hell.
And I don't believe that girl has to be the one to always compromise. That's the very problem with our society in the first place.
Mod
Totally!

Lol
Mostly arranged marriages are out of family but out of family doesnt mean that there is no know how of the family .Some relation or refrence must b there .Either may be a family friends or far relatives .Some connection must b there .Word compromise is necessary esp for girls according to me .
Mod
That'sthe thing. U have to believe the words of others that the person is good or not. And then again there was never be a guarantee.
