Arranged Marriage: Creepy or Cute?

Asked by starshine (576points) March 12th, 2010

So my mom, when I got my job, was like you’re gonna marry you’re boss’ son. He’s Greek and She says they like arranged marriages, and she can help me out…
She’s only half kidding. Its really creepy, honestly (to me) to think about my mom arranging a marriage between me and my boss’ son, though he is a wonderful person, I would rather go about finding a husband in the more modern way… This got me thinking. How many people out there think arranged marriage is acceptable(not that I think it’s unacceptable, I’m just not exactly a fan of my mom picking out the person I’ll be spending the rest of my life with), or coming back around or what ever? Who thinks its psycho? If you agree with it, why do you? If you think its nuts-o, why do you?
Personally, I think its a little on the wild side, and not in a good way.
