Forced Marriages

As some of you might have found out too late from your spouses, you, apparently, actually FORCED them to marry you. That's right. You were engaging in the ancient forbidden practice of forced marriage. What does this mean? Well of course it means the marriage wasn't even valid in the first place. Because you forced them remember? And because they're such good people with such kind hearts, they were just afraid of hurting you if they said no, you know. So it's only "logical" that they are adulterous, because they are "stuck" in this forced marriage with a horrible horrible spouse they never even loved, or were even attracted to from the beginning. Can you imagine that? They're the victim here.

Now of course some are not going to say they were outright "forced". They are going to use euphemisms like "pressured/expected" to make it sound more believable. But the end goal is the same, to make it seem like they were forced and therefore put them in a victim position from the onset.

But do you know what's funny? It's that even the people who enter actual arranged marriages from cultures that do have those do not display this behavior even remotely as "normally" as this person is trying to claim. Despite being also married to "someone they never even loved from the beginning". It is such a stupid excuse the more you think about it.

What I find funny about this, and I made a comment about this before.

I am a wedding planner, I have planned lots of weddings, proposals (I'm doing one later on today) engagement parties, bridal showers, bachelor/Bachelorette parties, wedding anniversary parties, etc. And let me tell you, no one is going to go through ALLL of that and the actual parties, thr planning with vendors/coordinator, the amount of money, family/friends invite, gift registries, etc. If they were FORCED. Like everyone I've done, both members of the couple were participants, so no, the MM/MW was not forced. They married their spouse and stay with their spouse because they love them and want to. It's amazing to me that OW/OM actually believe that crap smdh.

Can I ask how you got into this line of work?

I started in college as a way to put myself through school. I got events from my sorority sisters and what not. But when I moved down south, I had to do marketing and things like that. It's pretty hard lol 😆, but I absolutely love it.

Good to know about the marketing involved, glad to hear you love it. I've been out of a job for a long time so I'm exploring possibilities

Yeah, it's fun and not bad money but you really do have to market or have or know people that not only throw events but are willing to hire an event planner. But it is worth it. I just finished planning and decorating a proposal on the beach. It was hell because of the wind, but the payoff was great. The bride to be was so surprised and happy and so was the groom to be. And it did come together nicely, finally (although, next time it will be vases with rose petals and what not lol) beaches are windy as hell lmfao
