Have you been told the great benefits of arranged marriage? There are many! But recently I heard a testimony of an arranged marriage that turned out sour.
The man from India married a North American born Indian. He came to the west and started a new life with her after the wedding. He was shocked to find out that his wife would frequently leave the house on weekends with another man.
She would come home drunk and completely partied out! He was absolutely devastated and crushed. It was quite sad! The cozy picture of marriage is not reality. These are the new messages made. The movies are fiction. They are a fantasy. They are not real! But it can't all be bad can it?
