At What Age Did You Get Married?

:lolbron: I'll get married just to prove them wrong.

I find it quite the compliment when they call me a "commitment-phobe" and "40-year-old virgin." Like those are actually bad things. But, if anything, it means I must have left quite an indelible impression.

Was your husband younger or older than you and do you think marrying at 23 is too young for a man?

He was a year younger than me and absolutely. Too young. It didn’t work out for us, but I recognize that he was young ( as was I ) and know he’ll be a better father in the future and a better husband for someone else.

How did your family react when you wanted a divorce ? I don’t know if it’s true but from what I heard reer Xamar are not as acceptable of divorce compared to other clans.

I know that, but I knew rocktheboat was talking out of her ass, only a few women on ss, I can say are or have been married rest are a bunch of femcels... cough cough @Qeelbax @ Rocktheboat the list can go on and on
Femcel? have I called you out on your dustiness one too many times?
:susp:
 
23. But mine was arranged. I know that’s not really common in our culture, but within my “qaabil” it’s very common. Every woman in my family had an arranged marriage.

Western society makes it seem like it’s this horrible thing. When in my family’s eyes it’s more so …
Marry someone we all know and comes from a good family.

But it doesn’t guarantee that they’ll be a good person cause their dad was a good person.
DM me I'll take you in. :diddyass:

your family is really smart.

Love marriages are not haram but they can lead to problems when they are improperly handled.

Many people ignore the deen and talk to someone without their family present.

Having the family involved can weed out bad people and losers, but this requires a good family.

Arranged marriage can work and it tends to lead to longer lasting marriages than love marriages.

It’s not fair to say that, cause that’s not always the case that arranged marriages can work out.
Arranged marriages can be improperly handles as well. Not just love marriage.

Every women and some of the men in my family that had an arranged marriage ( all divorced eventually) from a supposedly good family ? Guess what ? That doesn’t always mean the man or woman may be good.

Its funny cause it’s actually the opposite. Especially in my case.
He got away with a lot of awful things cause they would always make excuses for him.
Talking about …
Well his family is a well respected family. He will change inshallah, we know he can. Give him time.

That whole mindset of … it holds the man more accountable cause they know the family wasn’t the deal at all with mine and many others.
He got away with a lot of awful things but his family always said … he will change we promise.

Cause the families on both sides kept making excuses for him.
But overall I get your point in that some are arranged marriages can last. Not all but some.

Some don’t want to divorce cause the man’s or woman’s family pressures them to stay.

That whole situation got me into some real hardship and stress in the long run, and overall they wanted him to get a passport for himself and his family. So no it wasn’t smart lol.

And also some familes will hide the fact that their son or daughter is trash and still make them seem like they are these amazing people.

@Angelina
My cousin who got into arranged marriage with this woman … everyone said she was religious and sweet and traditional and would be good for him ?

She would beat him up and be very violent towards him and the one time he defended himself she called the police and lied on him that he was hitting her. Eventually she went to the courts and wouldn’t let him see his daughter for years on end, and only supervised visits on the weekend.

So no, the familes can’t always weed out the bad ones and will pass of their child as a good person to a Miskeen man or woman.
