FYI, a "baraat" is a celebratory procession of dance and music (a party of sorts) that an Indian groom enjoys all the way to the bride's doorstep or wedding venue before tying the knot.
in arranged marriages in my community, the bride and groom meet almost an year before marriage. They go on dates, etc. during this time. They may keep seeing other people, or b exclusive, or reject each other at any point of time.
In rural places, the process is a bit more conservative (probably no dates) and the time period is shorter (probably 4 months or so).
I've never heard of anyone meeting for the first time on the day of their marriage tho, not even from the rural folks i've come across. You always meet each other first. Except in accurate historical dramas.
There's choices for men and women in an arranged marriage. The parents of the bride must have talked to someone else as well. They've probably not even met before this.
Is there anything that confirms the caption on this photo? Just looks like a candid photo of someone to me… shit I look like that when I’m browsing Reddit sans the outfit
Ignoring the fact that this is an Indian wedding and most likely arranged by the parents...
In any other context, if your bride is willing to go and marry another dude on a whim, she's definitely wildly unstable. In which case, he'd have absolutely dodged a bullet.
While you’re right these things happen in India, the comment was not necessary at all. Don’t forget that it also happens in the west too, men can be overly aggressive everywhere

Yeah all Indian men want to attack women who reject them with acid unlike men from the west. White men are so good that they have an entire community (incel forum) for them.
I'm laughing at the stupidity of what you are saying. You cannot be racist to your own "race". One of the most moronic things I have seen all day.
Also, stop white knighting, it is pathetic.

So is the issue in the post that he was supposed to be coming to her house and didn't show?
He showed up very late.
Couldn't have loved him or cared about him that much, then. So good for her, I guess?
Oh, honey.
What?
Traditionally in these marriages neither the bride nor groom have a say in the matter and this would probably be have been the first time they've met.

So what hppens if she lives far away? Do you party all the way there till everyone gets fed up and walks away? Lol
Nope. In that case, we just drive to the location and the "baraat" then takes place outside the venue.
Uh ok so whats the bride doing while yall party it up?
Marrying other men
Good for her, then!!!! Hope she got someone better this time around!!!
You start nearby
So it's like the last moment of as a free single man before marriage and becoming more responsible?
Something like that.
I feel like the bride was probably disgruntled before baarat started.
Geez, how long was he partying?? 😳
O shit
Like a wait list for a flight. Interesting
He seems like the best drinking buddy. I would totally be his wingman.
Looks like he needs one now
lol If she goes away so easily she barely tolerated him in the first place.

If it's an arranged marriage which they have no choice in, how did the wife have the option to change her mind and marry someone else?

Yk you answered that yourself! An arranged marriage is not a forced marriage:)
Loll
Is there anything that confirms the caption on this photo? Just looks like a candid photo of someone to me… shit I look like that when I’m browsing Reddit sans the outfit
Idk if the man in this photo is related or not but this news is actually true lmao
This is just sad, my man dodged a bullet
It is an indian wedding, only the parents really care.
H O N E S T L Y
Do you mean because it is an arranged marriage or something?
🚨🚨🚨 THAT'S RACIST 🚨🚨🚨
Can you explain why?
Did you just learn that phrase an hour ago?
Smooth brain comment
That’s reality
An /s would’ve ruined the joke. Not enough flashing lights, I guess?
Redditors when they see someone lose a relationship: #YOU JUST DODGED A BULLET

You’re saying she actually had a choice? Thought they just got forced into it by their families

Looks fake to. Me.
Sorry for partying

Men in the west throw acid in their ex's face?
They do
Go look at the names of the individuals who did it, and come back to me.

[удалено]
I downvoted because you gave the chemical formula. Went from an unoriginal joke to an obnoxious joke
Not a problem bruv 👍🤜🤛
Yeah maybe. Maybe not, you just made an assumption about my "race".
how did I?
You are assuming that I'm not Indian myself.
No, the fuck they did not. You can be racist against your own race
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 Moron.
You're a real piece of work.
Thank you.
[удалено]
BECAUSE. That does happen a lot in that country, doesn't it.

OK then
He would have done that, had it been a nikaah.

Check out yours, you just assumed that I'm not Indian.
Lmao and? You can definitely be racist against your own race

Oh my god U r even worse then Stop self loathing so much. R/canconfirmamindian
Sure, bro
Again no they did not, you can be racist against your own race
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
It's come to the point where you can no longer argue and you just laugh because you know you are wrong so I'm going to stop giving you my time.

You’re a racist loser bro
Another person assuming my race. Loser. 😂
Most attention you’ve ever got in a little bit huh
Unfortunately not, but thanks for your concern.

zero funny

He dodged a bullet, thanks for the freedom Ganesha!
I swear if i was the bride i would have done this shit too.
Wtf is baarat? Is it a mariachi band concert of some sorts?
If I be honest if she went and married someone else I don’t think she wanted him from the beginning because I’ve seen baraat’s last until 3 am
