it depends...if i'm currently single at the time the fixed marriage took place, i probably wouldn't mind as LONG AS i know that i'm marrying a GOOD man...and when i say good, i mean he has the qualities of a generally good man.....

how about if the two of you have different cultures? and the age gap is quite big? :D

i wouldn't mind. i'd be willing to adjust... i've seen couples who are in that similar situation and they're all fine...

its good if both of you are willing to adjust. you would also have to adjust to his family? specially if his parents are the one forcing their son to marry.alright then thank you for commenting :)

I don't agree with anyone having to go through a fixed marriage. I think it's just wrong for someone to have to marry someone they don't know. I know that's not the way God intended things to be. If I were to be in that type of situation, I just wouldn't do it. I don't truly see how you could be forced to do something like that. I mean there's only one way, but that's a harmful way and I don't believe anyone to drop down to that type of level. I surely hope that people will soon stop trying to have these fixed marriages and allow people to search and interact with other people to find the right person for themselves.

Welcome to mylot Why do you call arranged marriage as fixed marriage, because it is once for all, and one has to stick to one woman only? Mine was arranged marriage in 1966, we are so happy Thanks for sharing Cheers. God bless you, have a nice day ahead. Professor ‘Bhuwan’. .
