How exactly did your dad “arrange” your marriage? Sounds illegal.

This sounds less like a classical arranged marriage and more like parents introducing their kids to each other.

Yep. I’m thinking of the archaic forced marriage. Women being property.

I admit to sort of thinking that. So it’s no problem if a marriage ends in divorce?
