[quote=DODGER,268832]Leonardo, This is a difficult question to answer. In my case I had no parents to seek guidance from in regards to who I should marry. But I do think that generally people seek partners from the same social class or level. In many cases from the same religious faith The super rich still decide who their children will marry because the child’s inheritance is on the line. An example would be the Royal family in Britain. Although painted as a romance in the press it was about the suitability of the Woman to join an exclusive club. She would also be subjected to medical tests to see if she could have children. On the other hand, a business friend of mine who comes from Pakistan, now living in Australia, once confided in me that one of his greatest fears was that his sons would come home one day with white woman (his word) He thought this would be the greatest calamity to befall his family. He has arranged and chosen and paid for the marriage of all of his sons. Their first introduction to their future Wife’s was the day before the wedding.( A special concession on his part) Are these women happy? We will never know as they are now in a strange land and do not, and never will speak English. I’m not sure if this answers your question. Dodger [/quote]
