salam
I am not much different than you sister
where I come from, it isnt supposed to be this hard to get married
people meet each other & usually there is a period of time, before they decide to get married (sort of bf/gf) i never wanted that so here i am.
I havent actually went to my parents & told them I want to get married
though if it goes for long, I might have to actually spell it out
i have nothing against arranged marriages, as long as the 2 people actually hit off.
I make dua but i guess not enough
Only Allah knows what I want & I think if i actually spell out what i want & willing to accept in a husband, it may seem as though I am picky & choisy
but this is marriage, you will go through it once, & I want someone who will help me to follow islam & merit akhera.
for now I say to you sister, allah 23lam, i tell myself that, twakaletu 3ala Allah & He knows Best.
