I can't envision myself meeting a girl I barely know AND her parents on a first time - and answer their barrage of questions, sounds like a nightmare - I wonder how our forefathers even survived this sh!t.


Over here Gypsy's do it. I saw a reality show about it.

Arranged marriages are shown to actually work better than the "normal" way.

Being Westernized involves not using bidets and having disputes with women about the toilet lid if you live with them.

Being Westernized means you know that the toilet "lid" is known as the "seat."

Gypsies come from India; so they are eastern culturally.

They say that gypsy women of Egypt who invented the belly dancing.

What does belly dancing have to do with arranged marriages? Are you daydreaming Boo? Stay on topic.

what o.O
no there's the seat then there's a lid that goes over the seat. the seat has a hole in the center and the lid is solid. though not all toilets have both, most home ones do.

Sure, and while that should be remembered to inspire hope, it shouldn't be used to enable sloth in the dating world.

Sure, I've had a few myself, depending on how you define "successful". I'm no longer with any of them, but they were good times.

lately I've grown more bitter over still being single and not getting laid lately so damn much, it has made me feel unmotivated, not feeling like getting out of bed, not feeling like going to work, etc.

In my experience being motivated with your life actually makes girls more interested in you.
