[QUOTE]Originally posted by Questionmarks: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by * 7ayat *: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by *Dalia*: [qb] [/qb][/QUOTE] :confused: I know this is normal in Egypt, but I will never be able to wrap my head around this. How can you consider marrying someone when you're not even in love with the person?!? [/qb][/QUOTE]Me neither. I married my husband because I was in love with him and after three years and a half of marriage, I can't imagine how it would be like without love. Love is very very important. [/QB][/QUOTE] A female Moroccan filmmaker made a television-documentary about the subject love in a marriage within their culture. She interviewed a lot of young people and they all agreed that the subject 'love' was not a needed part in the eyes of their parents. It also wasn't part of their raising-up, because 'love' was connected to 'sex', and they didn't talk about that. More important values were 'a good person from a good family' with a 'respectable job' and therefore a 'high income' and no 'past'.... She said in fact this was strange because'the subjects 'love' and 'sex' in a marriage were even part of the Quoran. For what I've seen from it, the subjects are really different valued in the western and the eastern culture. Even when people married because of 'love', most of the time ( as far as I expierenced ) were the romantic feelings of the wife, and the husband had more rational reasons. Of course I am not in the circumstances to have proper research results, but this is only my personal impression. [/QB][/QUOTE]
