She is a victim of circumstances. Rass, fuss them marry she off without her consent...and pon top they choose her cousin.

BTW, she aint underage. and she didn't poison them...it is her boyfriend who did it. She brought the stuff home, and the mother-in-law served it. She couldn't tell if it was potent or not.

Not Guilty!

Some Pakistani force their kids to marry their cousins... a friend of my someone i know was forced to go to pakistan and marry her cousin.

I was asked by our friend to accompany them to look at a car they wanted to purchase. I knew about their situation and must say, it made me uncom. But that is cultural

Happens a lot in old timey cultures; my contrarian view is that besides the cousin marrying, the success rate of arranged marriages are better than the "modern" cultures.

I think experienced adults make better choices for their children's spouses that those children.

I might get a lot of flak for this line of thinking; I did say it was contrarian and dont expect to be agreed with.

I dont believe in fairy tales like "true love"/madness etc, I believe more in LIKE

This does not mean people that have chosen their spouse do not have great, successful relationships, I just believe system vs system, the arranged success rate is better

there are are also lots of family and community/religious pressure for couples to stay in arranged marriages....
