Oopss..🫣. the auto correction made the mess. I should have checked it properly.

I am wondering how our elders were so smooth in getting those things easily. While I am running out of patience, they were quite good at convincing both the families and making things simpler. You might have nailed the situation better, the boys family might be looking for better option. But then asking me for the alliance is not the things to do. I am hopeful, they give us the date and time for a meeting.

Is that a common thing for people to do?

Arranged marriage is common practices , and matches were made within community through each other recommendation and sourcing...like the situation I am in.
