Ah, okay. I'm not sure how I'd feel about having one though. If my family arranged a marriage for me, I'd be stuck with an uptight bible thumper and I would be miserable. It'd be like being married to my mom, minus the lesbian incest. D:
Again, it would depend on the culture and country. In India, family members will take out personal ads for it. They list attributes that mesh, and only those that are compatible answer. There is no "sweet, honest, makes me laugh..." and so on. It's "is good with numbers, wants to live in the sticks, knows how to relate to others, wants children..."
Of course, since your mom was raised in westernized society, these are not the things she would be looking for in a husband for you. So yeah...
Nope. Her ad for me would be as follows: Looking for good looking devout Christian male who can drive and never masturbates. I don't even think I'd get an arranged marriage out of that unless I was looking for an asexual.

I agree. I think a lot of the problems with dating I see on this site can be summed up with one little sentence... 'Looking for love in all the wrong places."
Then where are the right places? I'll camp there if I have to.

Lol, but I like Pennsylvania. I would move to a different city in PA because I like the people there better than back home. Obviously, it isn't exotic enough since it's a college town and most of the students are from another part of PA or NJ.

Hey i'm from NJ, you're saying i'm not exotic enough huh?
Well, I have friends and relatives in Jersey so not really. I don't think any of them have the accent though. XD
