15 Honest Questions Girls May Want To Ask In An Arranged Marriage Without Embarrassing Him

Marrying someone whom you have just met is a daring step in the true sense. A person you don’t know much about, but are considering spending the rest of your life with him only because your parents’ think he is the right choice for you is not an easy task. But let’s face it, your parents are the best judge for deciding what is best for you and they obviously won’t settle for anything but the BEST for you, right?

Still, there are some reservations, apprehensions and a lot of questions you want to ask your potential would-be but can’t be upfront about them. In other words, those questions might seem too direct, personal and sometimes rude, and so you just keep asking them in your mind and look for polite ways to say them out loud. So, we thought of getting all those questions for you to match with your list and probably add a few too!
