I Am In An Arranged Marriage

my husband is 6 years older than me. i knew him through church but my parents are the ones who set up us dating. i was 18 and had a daughter by my high school boyfriend who ran the minute i told him i was pregnant. we married when i was 19 and i have never regretted it. i love him and we have 5 kids together and another on the way together.

As long as you are happy and loved that sounds wonderful

Were you really given no choice? Or did your parents just set you two up on a date?

@Pherick: i was given a choice they just set it up.

@Pherick: after what happened with my bf who was my choice i didnt really trust myself to pick a guy but my daughter needed a dad.

@Southernlady32: Well I would argue that your daughter would have been just fine as long as you loved her, but really, the important thing is that you are in love and aren't still just together because someone else said so.

It's nice to hear a happy story for a change. Happy for both of you. May you continue to thrive.

@Normanfredman: cause he could get out of it he had no interest in being a dad and only seen her 2 times. once when she was born and one time at church.
