Arranged marriages to someone outside UK!!!

i would neverr marry someone fresh from outside the UK, and i would neverr let my parents chooose my hubby for me..suggestions/advice/views would be appreciated but i wouldn't let them choose my future hubby which i am gonna spend my life with.
i guess some dont have a say & some trust their parents.
Some people have no choice as their parents know they are doing the right thing, i mean hello u are choosin a guy with no proper stable job who doesnt probaly speak english for u daugther perhaps...im proper against arranged marriages, they are too dodgy for me. no offence too anyone btw -.-

Stereotyping much........
Not all of them do..........I know loads of South Asians who don't do such things.
Another problem is the family pressure when it comes to such things, some girls say yes to such...........but then again, some actually say Yes because rather have someone from home to be cultured, etc.
Plus whats wrong with them bringing their spouses, my Uncle met someone back in Bangladesh and liked her....so he married her and brought her here....no issues there, it was kind of arranged but he loves her.
In South Asian culture, it's just not the potential spouse involved, its the family as well, we don't see it as just the relationship of the 2, but 2 entire families, which must be in harmony, also families observe as a external view if their child is too blinded by love to see the bad characteristics, etc.

Obviously the ones where they are forced to marry them or pressured into is wrong, but you shouldn't stereotype it nor attack the way their children want to take the route of arranged marriage.

Yes it is a sterotype because arranged marraige is prominant partof South Asain culture, or perhaps you simply did not notice that

I wasn't talking about the arranged bit, read what I wrote, I was talking about the stereotyping of British Pakistani's getting into arranged marriages back home -_-

Sterotype ? British Pakistanis do get arranged marraiges in Pakistan, the OP did not say every Pakistani does. But it still happens a lot.

Why are British born Pakistanis girls marrying men from Pakistan, why can't they parents arrange a marriage with a Pakistani man from the UK? Now this really annoys me! There are ample suitable husbands/wives who were born & brought up here, why do they arrange marriages with people living in Pakistan & then bring the spouse over here? I see it as an abuse of our immigration system - something that the government needs to clamp down on; it's not like those involved can say you can't help who you fall in love with seeing as the marriages are arranged. Personally I think it's better for people to choose their own spouse, but I understand that that is not their way of doing things.

My parents had an arranged marriage and they have been married ever since (about 17 years so far). They met a few months before getting married and fell in love; I don't think you can say all arranged marriages are bad. Of course, there is a difference between a forced and an arranged marriage...
