Lets start a discussion girls!!


The other day i was pondering over the general attitude of parents when it comes to marriage decisions of their sons and daughters. Ppl generally have a tendency to look for a rich guy (for their daughter) and also a rich gal (for their sons..may be this one is low but it does exist).. Why is this so??? Aren't marriages made in heaven. And is it obvious that money would grant all the happiness to their children???

I have heard many parents refusing the proposal for their daughter becoz the guy didnt possess a house of his own. He and his family lives in some rental-paid house and not a personal house. Do u think a house or for that matter a very established business of the guy wud do any good to the gal?

Do u think money is all parents should look for or other things count the most and money is secondary?? Why is this becoming a common trend everywhere?

Lets share our views about this.

Regards.

actually in our family ma parents made ma brother get married 2 a gal who didnt come from a rich background she was from a small village by ma grandparents house in pakistan n they got ma bruv married 2 her coz they liked her values and views n stuff she had within her, n also ma cosin sis got married 2 a guy who is also not well off he has no money 2 his name but she married him coz she fell in love wid him

but i agree wid ur topic that parents look for some1 who is rich for their daughter this is so the daughter can be supported by her husband finacially n she has all the happiness n not despise them for makin her marry a poor guy, in other words they want her 2 have a rich husband so he can give her everythin she needz as after marriage parents are not responsible 4 their daughters as the responsibilty is handed to the husband so he has to give her everythin her parents want him 2 happiness n joy

(i know i dont make sense but dont shout @ me this is 1 of ma longest posts 😆 )

I think that choosing a husband/wife just because of their financal status is completely wrong. Marriage is a union, a commitment that only functions when both sides are actively involed...What if the guy u are marrying doesnt own a mansion, what if he doesnt have cars lined up in his garage, if ur face lights up when u see him, and visa versa, u will know that u have married the right guy. And at the end, if u do want a mansion and cars, both of u have to work together and stand by each other to achieve that...

Btw, no personal experience involved 😉

agree with you all
i think Parents choose someone to financially secure their daughters, they think that if the guy has money n house etc then their daughter wont have to "Suffer" n will be easier for her to live her life "Happily"

Well according to me its natural if girl's parents want their daughter to marry an establish guy (i m not saying someone who owns a mansion or luxarious cars lined up on the driveway) 'coz they dont want their daughter to face any financial crises...but i dont understand y parents want rich girls for their son?? they way i see it is that the guy jst wants an ez way to get himslef established thats y he/his parents seek for a girl or rather a family who is financialy stable...

hmmmm!
if looked from a parent's perspective, they want their daughter to give the best for her future life,being poor only means that their daughter's future in terms of finance won't be secure but i think that if parents find a hint of progress in the guy they won't back off from the porposal coz marrying the daughter to a self-made person is much better than simpley giving their daughter to a person who is a machine to make money....i hope i din't confuse u guys!...the only point i am trying to make is that prents look for their daughter's secure future!....
rahi baat larrkon keh liye ameer larrki dhoondna,,,,i think thats just nothing but the complex of bringing daughter-in-law from a "ooncha" khandaan!.......
take carez!

hmmm...topic kafi dilchasp hai...chalain ab merri philosophy bhi sun layen...

parentz want their daughter 2 marry a guy huz well off so tht their daughter dun gotta struggle...i mean parentz rnt gonna want 2 marry their daughter 2 a guy huz so poor he cant provide her with her needs. this is reasonalble 2 a limited amt..pplz shudnt jus go after da guyz money..his family, his personality, his character, his values, his education, etc are more important..parentz think $$ will keep their daughter happy in their new house but they dun realize tht the daughter wantz peace n luv more den $$ (haha in most cases..but there r a bunch of gold-diggers out there so this isnt tru 4 all)..if guy is rich has a million cars and properties in many countries and a huuge house and many servants and gives his wife alotta designer clothes n alotta jewlery but hez alwaiiz away cuz of wrk she dusnt get his luv n she misses out on tht...or if he is home and ahs everything i mentioned but he it mean..he dusnt talk 2 her or it brutal towards her or critisizes her she wont b happy..or he isnt rude but cheats on her and has affairs with other women and spends all his time partying without her...thn she wont b happy either..it the girl is really unlucky and itz a combination of ne of these thn itz even worse..the parents married their daughter 2 a crore-pati business man but their daughter is miserable...so u c my frendz $$ isnt everything.

haha i can go i2 a detailed essay abt other side as well but im 2 lazy 2 so i wont

i understand taht parents shudn't just look for money in a guy but if not that what will u look for his social standing ,his personality, his charm ? i think anyone can cheat u in what their personality is and how nice they are and what a great family they have but at least a guy with good social standing and money can give your daughter the monetary comforts of life because i know that a lot of problems in marriages occur because of money problems and that is the biggest problem in the middle class the lack of money. i understand taht money doesn't necessarily make u happy but the lack of it definitely doesn't make u happy even the people who r crazy in love start messing up because of teh lack of money. i think we cease to remember how important it is love sounds great in books and movies and stories but in real life the first step towards a good and happy life is a good man with a lot of money. see how i said hehas to be a good man he cant just be rich because some rich bas***ds out tehre r problematic.
